Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Potential Biohazard: Rapid tests are formulated with a buffer base using small quantities of animal (bovine) serum components. All bovine serum products used are derived from animals of US origin, processed in USDA licensed facilities. These are on the nitrocellulose membrane in very minute quantities. There are no human serum components in the test device. Chemical Hazard: Components used in the product are formulated with Sodium Azide as a preservative. Concentrated Sodium Azide may react with copper and lead plumbing to form explosive metal azides. It may also react with acids to form explosive hydrazoic acid. If drain disposed, flush with large amounts of water to prevent azide build-up. General Information: This rapid test consists of a test device, which is a nitrocellulose membrane coated with specific antibodies to the substance of interest, inside a plastic housing. This test is packaged with a sealed desiccant pack inside a foil and mylar pouch to protect the test from moisture. PRODUCT: HCG Rapid Tests CODE #: 1047 / 1048 / 1146 / 1147
