Human Chorionic Gonadotropin(HCG) Test INTENDED USE:

One Step HCG Urine Pregnancy Test measures the presence of the hormone Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (HCG) in human urine or serum for the early detection of pregnancy.

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin(HCG) Test SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION:

HCG is produced by the placenta during pregnancy, shortly after the embryo attaches to the uterine lining. Usually HCG can be detected by a home pregnancy test within 7-10 days after conception. This test is capable of detecting pregnancy as early as the first day after you miss a period. The further into the pregnancy you are, the higher the levels of HCG in your urine. This pregnancy Cassette detects HCG in urine at a concentration of 25mIU/ml (Milli-International Units) or greater. The concentration of HCG in non-pregnant women is normally 5.0mIU/ml. At the time of the last missed menstrual period, urine HCG levels are about 100mlU/ml with peak levels of 100,000 to 200,000mlU/ml seen at the end of the first trimester.
