well of the device followed by two drops of buffer in the buffer well, IgM and IgG antibodies in the sample reacts with anti-human IgM and anti-human IgG antibodies coated on the membrane respectively. If the sample contain Scrub Typhus (Tsutsugamushi) antibodies,
colloidal gold conjugate containing Scrub Typhus antigens is captured by the bound anti-Tsutsugamushi IgM &/or IgG on respective test bands forming a pale to dark red band at the IgM &/or IgG region of the test device. The intensity of the test bands in the device will vary
depending upon the amount of antibodies present in the sample.
