Test Principle:
The BT-Check bladder tumor test is based on the Sandwich immunoassay. For this, antibodies are fixed onto the test; urine sample will be taken and dropped onto the test with bladder tumour antigens, the colour coded antibodies will agglutinate with the sample antigens and migrate to the test line, which they will dye red.
Test Process:
- Warm the bladder tumor test to room temperature
- Take urine sample
- Drop 3 drops of urine onto the test
- After 5 minutes, results can be read
