Rheumatoid factor (RF) is an autoantibody most relevant in rheumatoid arthritis. It is an antibody against the Fc portion of IgG, which is itself an antibody. RF is often evaluated in patients suspected of having any form of arthritis even though positive results can be due to other causes. It is part of the usual disease criteria of rheumatoid arthritis, and RF may serve as one of several serological markers for autoimmunity unrelated to rheumatoid arthritis. High levels of rheumatoid factor (generally above 20 IU/ml) occur in rheumatoid arthritis (present in 80%) and Sjögren's syndrome (present in 70%). Rheumatoid Factor (RF) Rapid Test Cassette utilizes RF antibodies to specifically detect the presence of RF in human serum/plasma without the use of an instrument.
The Rheumatoid Factor Rapid Test (Serum/Plasma) is a rapid test that utilizes a combination of rheumatoid factor antibodies coated colored particles for the detection of Rheumatoid Factor in human serum or plasma.
