INTRODUCTION
Malaria is caused by a protozoan which invades human red blood cells. Malaria antigen (pf/pan) test paper is used to detect specific Plasmodium falciparum lactate dehydrogenase (pfLDH) and Plasmodium lactate dehydrogenase (panLDH) in whole blood samples.

ITRODUCTION
The Malaria P.f/Pan Rapid Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of circulating antigens of Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium ovale, Plasmodium malariae in whole blood.
COMPONENT
· Rapid Test
· Buffer
· Disposable Pippetes
· Instroduction for Use
SAMPLE COLLECTION AND STORAGE
· The Malaria P.f/ Pan Rapid Test Device (Whole Blood) is intended for use with human whole blood specimens only.
· Perform testing immediately after specimen collection. Do not leave specimens at room temperature for prolonged periods. For long term storage, specimens should be kept below -20°C. Whole blood collected by venipuncture should be stored at 2-8°C if the test is to be run within 3 days of collection.
· Containers containing anticoagulants such as EDTA, citrate, or heparin should be used for whole blood storage.
· Bring specimens to room temperature prior to testing. Frozen specimens must be completely thawed and mixed well prior to testing. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of specimens.
· If specimens are to be shipped, pack them in compliance with all applicable regulations for transportation of etiological agents.
TEST PROCEDURE
Allow the test device, specimen, buffer, and/or controls to equilibrate to room temperature (15-30°C) prior to testing.
1. Remove the test device from the foil pouch and use it as soon as possible. Best results will be obtained if the assay is performed within one hour.
2. Place the test device on a clean and level surface. Transfer the specimen by a pipette or a disposable specimen pipette:
· To use a Pipette: Transfer 5 uL of whole blood to Well-S (S) of the test device, then add 3~4 full drops of buffer to Well-B (B), and start the timer. Avoid trapping air bubbles in S.
· To use a Disposable Specimen Pipette: Hold the pipette vertically; draw the specimen up to the Fill Line. Transfer the specimen to S of the test device, then add 3~4 full drops of buffer to B and start the timer.Avoid trapping air bubbles in S.
3. Wait for the colored line(s) to appear. The result should be read at 15 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 20 minutes.
INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS
POSITIVE:* Two or Three distinct colored lines appear.
P. falciparum or mixed malaria infection:one line appears in the control region, one line appears in Pan line region and one line appears in P.f line region.
P. falciparum infection: one line appears in the control region, and one line appears in P.f line region. Non-falciparum Plasmodium species infection : one line appears in the control region and one line appears in Pan line region.
*NOTE: The color intensity of P.f or Pan test lines may vary depending on the concentration of antigens, viz., HRP-II or Aldolase present in the specimen.
NEGATIVE: Only one colored line appears in the control region.
INVALID: Control line fails to appear. Insufficient specimen volume or incorrect procedural techniques are the most likely reasons for control line failure. Review the procedure and repeat the test with a new test device. If the problem persists, discontinue using the test kit immediately and contact your local distributor.
