FAQ: HOW DOES THE IRON DEFICIENCY TEST WORK? Ferritin is a protein and the primary form of iron stored inside cells. An abnormal result means that the ferritin concentration in blood is lower than 30ng/ml and a possible iron deficiency. WHEN SHOULD THE TEST BE USED? The Ferritin Rapid Test Cassette can be performed in case of symptoms like paleness, feeling tired, headaches, faster heartbeat, or shortness of breath during exercise; mainly, if women, when pregnant, or in case of excessive bleeding during periods. The test can be performed any time of the day, but must not be performed in case of disease, acute inflammations, or in case of spleen or liver injury. Abnormal results can be obtained even in the case of no iron deficiency situation. CAN THE RESULT BE INCORRECT? The results are accurate as long as the instructions are carefully respected. Nevertheless, the result can be incorrect if the ferritin test gets wet before the test performing or if the quantity of blood dispensed in the sample well is not sufficient. The capillary dropper provided in the box allows making sure the collected blood volume is correct. Besides, due to immunological principles involved, there exist the chances of false results in rare cases. A consultation with the doctor is always recommended for such tests based on immunological principles. WHAT IS THE LINE THAT APPEARS UNDER THE C (CONTROL) LINE? When this line appears, it only means that the test is performing well. IF I READ THE RESULT AFTER 10 MINUTES, WILL THE RESULT BE RELIABLE? No. The result should be read at 5 minutes after adding the buffer. The result is not reliable after 10 minutes. WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO IF THE RESULT IS ABNORMAL? If the result is abnormal, it means that the ferritin level is lower than the normal (30ng/ml) and that you should consult the physician and show the test result to him/ her. Then, the physician will decide whether additional analysis should be performed. WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO IF THE RESULT IS NORMAL? If the result is normal, it means that the ferritin level is higher than 30ng/ml and is within the normal range. However, if the symptoms persist, it is recommended to consult a physician.
