The product is based on the principle of antigen-antibody reaction and immunoassay technique. The test device contains colloidal gold labeled SARS-CoV-2 recombinant protein, mouse-anti human IgG antibody immobilized in G test area, mouse-anti human IgM antibody immobilized in M test area and the corresponding antibody in quality control area (C). During the test, when the SARS-CoV-2 IgM antibody level in the sample is at or above the limit of detection of the test, the SARS-CoV-2 IgM antibody in the sample binds to the colloidal gold labeled SARS-CoV-2 recombinant protein which is pre-coated on a gold label pad. The conjugates migrate upward through capillary effect and would be captured by mouse-anti human IgM antibody immobilized in M test area subsequently and this produces a purple-red band appears in the M test area. When the SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody level in the sample is at or above the limit of detection of the test, the SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody in the sample binds to the colloidal gold labeled SARS-CoV-2
