I have just done a Siemens hCG clinitest pregnancy test. what does the result mean?
- Thread starter Vicki
- Start date
I got this test from the hospital I work in. There were no instructions in the packet.
There are 3 letters which indicate the results.
>C
>R
>T
I have a dark line against the C and a feinter line against the R. No line against the T.
Does anyone know what this means.
I am soooooooo excited. I need to know. xxx

The Clinitest hCG Pregnancy Test is a chromatographic immunoassay (CIA) for the rapid
determination of hCG in urine. The membrane is precoated with anti-alpha hCG capture antibody on
the test line region (T) and goat anti-mouse IgG on the control line region (C). During testing, the
urine specimen is allowed to react with colloidal gold particles coated with anti-beta hCG monoclonal
antibody. The mixture then chromatographically moves along the membrane by capillary action. For
a positive or borderline result, a pink colored line with a specific antibody-hCG-antibody-colloidal gold
particle complex will form on the membrane in the test line region. A pink-colored line at the reference
region (R), the area between the control line region and the test line region has been adjusted to a
level approximating 25 mIU/mL hCG. Absence of a pink-colored line in the test line region indicates a
negative result. The appearance of a colored line in the control region and the reference region
serves as verification that sufficient volume has been added and that proper flow has occurred.
i think your test is negative, sorry. xxx
