The OV-Watch® Early Detection Midstream Pregnancy Tests
Advanced Technology. Advanced Notice. Advanced Results.
Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is a glycoprotein hormone secreted by the developing placenta shortly after implantation.
HCG can be detected in the urine and serum of pregnant women as early as 6 to 15 days after conception. The concentration of
HCG increases to 5-50mIU/ml one week post implantation, reaches about 100mUI/ml at the time of the first missed menstrual period,
and peaks at 100,000-200,000mIU/ml at the end of the first trimester.
The appearance of HCG soon after conception and its subsequent rise in concentration during early gestation growth make it an
excellent marker for the early detection of pregnancy.
The OV-Watch midstream style HCG test is a rapid test to detect the presence of HCG in urine specimens in a qualitative format
sensitive to 25mIU HCG/ml. The test utilizes a combination of monoclonal and polyclonal antibody reagents to selectively detect
elevated levels of HCG in urine. The immunological specificity of the test virtually eliminates cross reactivity interferences
from the structurally related glycoprotein hormones hFSH, hLh, hTSH at physiological levels.
