Key features
How it works

Ferritin reflects “stored iron” or “available iron for use”, over circulating iron and transferrin. Ferritin is a more reliable marker for iron deficiency over serum iron or transferrin. Ferritin tends to decline earlier than haemoglobin in the blood. The Ferritin Rapid Test Cassette (Whole Blood) specimen reacts with the particle coated with anti-ferritin monoclonal antibody. The mixture migrates upward on the membrane by capillary action to generate a coloured line and the line in the test line region (T) appears if the ferritin level exceeds the cut-off level of 30 ng/mL. If the ferritin concentration is less than 30ng/mL, the test line does not appear. To serve as a procedural control, a coloured line will always appear in the control line region (C), indicating that the proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.
