Influenza A/B Antigen Rapid Test Cassette（GICA）

The Influenza A/B Antigen Rapid Test Cassette（GICA）is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay method used for qualitative detection of A and B influenza antigens in human nasal fluid, nasal specimens, and throat swab samples to help diagnose influenza A and B infection.

Influenza virus, referred to as Flu, is the pathogen that causes influenza. influenza is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by influenza A, B, and C viruses. It is highly infectious, spreads quickly, has a short incubation period, and has a high incidence rate.

The Influenza A often appears in epidemic form and can cause a global influenza pandemic. It is widely distributed in animals and can also cause influenza outbreaks and lead to a large number of animal deaths. The Influenza B often causes local outbreaks and does not cause a global influenza pandemic.

The clinical symptoms of influenza virus infection mainly include: acute onset, chills, high fever, headache, dizziness, systemic pain, fatigue and other poisoning symptoms;May be accompanied by respiratory symptoms such as sore throat, dry cough, runny nose, and tears; A few cases have decreased appetite, accompanied by gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, vomiting, and diarrhea.
