ADEXUSDx® hCG Test

FDA Cleared & CE Marked CLIA Waiver Pending

Product Specifications

The ADEXUSDx® hCG Test is an immunoassay used for the qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin in human whole blood, plasma, or serum and is indicated as an aid for health care professionals in the diagnosis of early pregnancy. Pregnancy tests are based on the detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a hormone produced by the placenta around the fourth day after conception. hCG levels rise rapidly and double approximately every two days. The ADEXUSDx® hCG Test can detect hCG in a single drop of whole blood, serum, or plasma without additional reagents or materials. The ADEXUSDx® hCG Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay that delivers results in ten minutes.

*Based on our cutoff, pregnancy can be detected at 10 mIU/mL. Depending on the woman and the pregnancy, this can be days earlier than urine-based hCG tests.

1 Capillary Blood Sensitivity >99% compared to clinically confirmed pregnancy diagnosis
Capillary Blood Sensitivity >99% compared to clinically confirmed non-pregnant women

2 In a March 2015 report in Clinical Chemistry, Robert N. Nerenz and Ann M. Gronowski detailed their evaluation of 11 common POC hCG urine-based devices and determined that 9 of the 11 were susceptible to false-negative results.
