Product Specification

Fast Reading Menopause Test Use By Citest GO fluorescence Immunoassay Analyzer In Human whole blood /serum /plasma

A test for measuring Menopause CRP in whole blood /serum /plasma with the use of Citest TM Go fluorescence Immunoassay Analyzer. For professional in vitro diagnostic use only.

Application:

CRP Test Cassette (WB/S/P) is based on Fluorescence Immunoassay for the quantitative determination of C-reactive protein (CRP) in serum, plasma or whole blood as an aid in the evaluation of infection, tissue injury and inflammatory disorders along with measurement of high sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) for evaluation of acute coronary syndromes (ACS).

Description:

Menopause is the permanent cessation of menstruation but is usually not scientifically diagnosed until one full year after a woman’s menstrual periods have stopped. The period leading up to menopause, and the 12 months following, is known as perimenopause. Many women experience symptoms during this time including hot flashes, irregular menstrual cycles, sleep disorders, vaginal dryness, hair loss, anxiety and mood swings, short-term memory loss and fatigue.

The onset of perimenopause is caused by changes in the levels of hormones in the female body that regulate the menstrual cycle. As the body produces less and less estro/gen, it increases its production of FSH, which normally regulates the development of a female’s eggs.1-3.

Therefore, testing for FSH can help determine whether a woman is in the perimenopause stage. If a woman knows she is perimenopausal, she can take the appropriate steps to keep her body healthy and avoid the health risks associated with menopause, which include osteoporosis, increased blood pressure and cholesterol, and increased risk of heart disease.

The FSH Test cassette is a rapid test that quantitatively detects the FSH level in Whole Blood /Serum/Plasma specimen. The test utilizes a combination of antibodies including a monoclonal anti-FSH antibody to selectively detect elevated levels of FSH. The minimum detection level is 10mIU/mL.
