Order your Home Inflammation Test to gain a fast indication of the presents of Serum amyloid A (SAA) proteins in your blood.

Serum amyloid A (SAA) proteins have several roles, including the transport of cholesterol to the liver for secretion into the bile and the recruitment of immune cells to inflammatory sites. Understanding SAA levels in your blood can help with the further diagnosis of inflammation in the body.

Serum amyloid A (SAA) proteins in your blood can be an indicator that further investigation of inflammation is required. This test uses a small sample of blood in a compact testing kit which is mailed directly to you.

The easy-to-use CE approved testing kit is mailed immediately on purchase and should reach you within 1-3 working days.

In the box, there will be full instructions provided on how to complete the sample and testing process in 10 minutes.

Are you suffering from symptoms of acute or chronic inflammation?

Chronic inflammation often manifests in people as symptoms of:

  • Pain.
  • Fatigue.
  • Depression.
  • Weight gain.

And in some cases, it can lead to sufferers developing major chronic illnesses like:

  • Heart disease.
  • Diabetes.
  • Alzheimer’s.
  • Cancer.
  • Arthritis.

Remember, anyone can suffer from chronic inflammation even people who live relatively healthy lives. All it takes are infections, an unhealthy diet, and obesity to trigger the beginning of acute inflammation.

How can a Persistent Inflammation Test help me?

Inflammation isn’t a bad thing. In fact, it’s the body’s natural way of healing damaged tissue. But how do you know when your persistent inflammation is no longer helping you – but hindering your health instead?

That’s when the persistent inflammation test comes in.

Our persistent inflammation test will require you to take a blood sample with the at-home kit, and this will measure the levels of serum amyloid A (SAA) proteins that are expressed in response to inflammatory stimuli. High levels of SAA will allow you to explore whether your persistent inflammation has turned chronic – and the risks that it may pose to you.

  1. Receive your test kit in the post.
  2. Clean your finger and use the finger prick lancet to release blood.
  3. Draw the sample into the capillary and fill completely.
  4. Place the blood-filled capillary into the buffer tube, shake vigorously for 10 seconds then leave for 1 minute to allow the sample to settle.
  5. Transfer 3 drops of the diluted sample to the sample well.
  6. Wait 5 minutes for the results to appear.
    NOTE: Do not interpret before 5 minutes or after 10 minutes as the results may be inaccurate.

SAA Rapid Test is a qualitative, solid phase, two-site sandwich immunoassay for the detection of serum amyloid A protein in whole blood, serum or plasma.

The membrane is pre-coated with anti-SAA antibodies on the test line region of the cassette.

During testing, SAA, if present in the whole blood, serum or plasma specimen, reacts with the coloured particles coated with anti-SAA antibodies.

The SAA-Conjugate complex migrates upward on the membrane chromatographically by capillary action to react with anti-SAA antibodies in the test line region on the membrane and generates a coloured line.

The presence of this coloured line in the test region indicates a positive result, while its absence indicates a negative result.

As a procedural control, a coloured line will always appear in the control line region, indicating that a proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane absorbing has occurred.
