How do the Instant-View® pregnancy tests work?
Soon after a woman becomes pregnant, her body produces a hormone known as hCG (human Chorionic Gonadotropin). The presence of the hormone indicates pregnancy. The Instant-View® hCG Urine Test is a qualitative immunoassay designed to detect the hormone in a womanís urine sample as an aid in the diagnosis of early pregnancy. The Instant-View® hCG Combo (Urine/Serum) Test is a qualitative immunoassay designed to detect the hormone in a womanís urine or serum sample also as an aid in the diagnosis of early pregnancy.
