The Test Procedure

Biocard Celiac Test identifies in just 10 minutes whether IgA antibodies to transglutaminase - a key marker for celiac disease - are present in a small finger prick blood test.








Step One
Press the automatic finger pricker against the fingertip and press the release button. This gently punctures the skin to obtain a small drop of blood.








Step Two
The blood drop is collected in a small tube and placed in a bottle containing a solution which breaks down the red blood cells to release the transglutaminase.








Step Three
A test strip is placed into the bottle and left for five minutes before reading your results.
