Simple to use.
Advanced Science.
Rapid, Reliable Results
Results are available as soon as 14 hours after enrichment.
Simple to Use
The 1-2 Test requires only two to three minutes of hands-on time to run. Each simple step
of the preparation sequence can be performed on an individual unit or simultaneously on
multiple units.
Flexible
The single-use format of the 1-2 Test provides the flexibility to run any number of tests
depending on your testing needs.
Actual Size
Visual Results
Results are interpreted visually by observing the development of an Immunoband, a
characteristic immobilization pattern of cells. No equipment is required to read results.
Extensively Validated
AOAC Official Method 989.13 and other international validations.
1-2 Test Kit Contents
Each test kit is self-contained and comes with disposable 1-2 Test units, activation reagent and
proprietary antibody preparation solution. A 1-2 Test with an empty sideport (ESP) is also
available.
The 1-2 Test is highly sensitive and specific. It uses a unique combination of a built-in selective enrichment, the
immunodiffusion principle, and a proprietary preparation of antibodies to detect Salmonella.
