introduzione al prodotto

• The kit is used for in vitro quantitative determination of hepatitis C virus (HCV) acido nucleico (RNA) in serum samples.
• It’s intended for patients requiring HCV infection testing and those undergoing antiviral treatment for hepatitis C.
• The kit can detect common clinical types of HCV, including types 1 A 6.
• It primarily monitors blood HCV RNA content and changes in patients with hepatitis C to evaluate treatment response and effectiveness.
• Tuttavia, the test should not be solely relied upon for evaluating a patient’s condition.
• A comprehensive evaluation, combining clinical performance and other laboratory test indicators, is necessary.
• This kit should not be used for blood source screening for HCV.
• The kit extracts HCV RNA from serum samples using a lysate containing magnetic beads and amplifies it in the same tube.
• HCV RNA is reverse transcribed into HCV cDNA by reverse transcriptase and quantified using the TaqMan probe technique in real-time assay.
• Calibration and quality control products for this kit are clinical serum samples containing inactivated hepatitis C virus.
• The kit monitors samples for PCR inhibitors by detecting internal labels to avoid false negatives.

4. Transportation: Specimens should be transported with dry ice or in a foam box, frozen, and sealed.

Method of Calibration:

(IO) Preparazione del reagente (Reagent Preparation Area):

1. Take out various reagent components and allow them to reach room temperature.
2. Preparation of Extract: Fully mix HCV lysate (RLB) containing magnetic beads before use. Mix at a ratio of (HCV lysate 1501/human + HCV internal standard 1.01/human). Immediately dispense 1501/well into the PCR amplification tube, ensuring the extract is at the bottom of the tube. If there are adhesive wall extract and magnetic beads, gently oscillate on the operating table to ensure they reach the bottom of the tube.
3. Preparazione del reagente di amplificazione PCR: Prepare HCV RT-PCR reaction liquid and HCV enzyme mixture according to the number of samples, HCV negative quality control products, HCV weak positive quality control products, HCV strong positive quality control products, and HCV calibration products. Mix at a ratio of (38.01 of HCV RT-PCR reaction liquid/human + HCV enzyme mixture 2.01/human), and fully mix into PCR-Mix for immediate use.

(II) Nucleic Acid Extraction and Purification (Specimen Treatment Area):

1. Aggiungere 1001 of samples to be tested or HCV, HCV, HCV, and HCV calibration. Gently blow and mix 2~3 times, then let stand at room temperature for 5 minuti.
2. Transfer the PCR tube to the magnetic frame (recommended by the company) and stand for 3 minuti. Drain the supernatant with a pipette or negative pressure device, being careful not to remove the magnetic beads.
3. Keep the PCR tube on the magnetic frame, aggiungere 2501 of HCV rinsing fluid (RWB) a ciascun pozzo, stand for 1 minuto, then drain the supernatant with a pipette or negative pressure device, ensuring that no residual fluid.
4. Ripeti il ​​passaggio 3 with RWB for another wash, being careful not to leave residual fluid at the bottom of the PCR tube.

(III) Expansion Reagent Addition (Specimen Treatment Area): Add prepared PCR-Mix at 401 per well to the PCR tube containing nucleic acid magnetic beads. Cover the amplification tube, and gently bounce to reverse the magnetic beads, ensuring the PCR-Mix is fully mixed. Centrifuge horizontally and transiently. Transfer the PCR reaction tubes to the detection area and place them on a fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument for detection.

(IV) Amplificazione PCR (Test Area):

1. Place the PCR reaction tube into the amplicator, set HCV negative quality control, HCV weak positive quality control, HCV strong positive quality control, HCV calibration ①~④, and samples to be tested according to the corresponding order. Set the sample name and calibrated product concentration.
2. Perform fluorescent PCR amplification procedure, using SLAN-96P as follows (MX3000P/3005P and ABI7500P are similar).

Reference Value:

• The lower detection limit is 15 UI/ml, quantification limit is 50 UI/ml, with a target Ct value of 40, and an internal standard Ct of 40.

Experiment Effectiveness Judgment:

1. All calibration products should exhibit positive linear correlation coefficients of ≥0.980.
2. The negative quality control product must show no detection, with an internal standard Ct value of 40.
3. The Ct value of strong positive quality control should be <32, ranging from (0.5 A 5.0) x 10^4 IU/ml; weakly positive QC Ct value should be <37, with quantification results ranging from (100 A 700) UI/ml.
4. These requirements must be met within the same experiment; Altrimenti, results are considered invalid and require re-testing.

Interpretazione dei risultati dei test:

1. For sample test results between 50~1.010^8 IU/ml, with an S-type curve, sample Ct value of 40, and internal standard Ct value of 40, results are valid and can be directly reported as positive with the corresponding concentration value.
2. If the sample test result exceeds 1.010^8 IU/ml, dilute the sample and re-test.
3. If sample test results are <50 IU/ml HCV RNA, with a sample Ct value of 40 and internal standard Ct value of 40, the viral load is low, and results can be reported directly, though the concentration is for reference only.
4. If sample test results are <15 IU/ml HCV RNA, with a sample Ct value of 40 and internal standard Ct value of 40, the reported concentration is below the kit’s lower limit; if the internal standard is abnormal or missing, results are invalid and require investigation and re-testing.
