Self-test for the detection of the Helicobacter pylori antigen in the faeces.

Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium, whose ideal habitat is the human gastric mucosa, causing an often asymptomatic infection of the gastrointestinal tract. Sometimes the presence of this bacterium can cause gastritis and ulcers in the stomach or duodenum. The most common symptoms of these conditions are: burning or pain in the upper abdomen, especially between meals when the stomach is empty, nausea and a sense of fullness, reflux, loss of appetite and weight loss. On the long-term the Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer.

HELICOBACTER PYLORI ANTIGEN TEST is intended for anyone who wants to identify the presence of the bacterium in the body.
 

 
Collect the sample using the special collection sheet;
Unscrew the cap of the vial, plunge the withdrawal stick in 3 different points of the sample and screw the cap back on;
Break the end of the cap, freeing the dropper part, and dispense 3 drops of the diluted sample into the well (S) indicated on the cassette;
Wait 10 minutes before reading the result

What happens if the results reading time is not met? The test has been carried out correctly when the instructions for use are followed. It includes the reading time and the interpretation of the results shown at the "RESULTS INTERPRETATION" section of the instructions for use.

How to prove that the test worked correctly? A coloured line will appear at the control region (C) on the test device, showing that the test performed correctly. The absence of the coloured line suggests to repeat the test with a new device and a new sample

How to interpret the test if the control and test lines have different intensities? The colour and intensity of the lines do not affect the interpretation of the result. The test has to be considered positive regardless of the colour intensity of the test line (T).
