The Simple Solution to "Hook
Effect" Concerns...
Combines
the RAID 8 with the RAID TOX
(Compatible
with Federal sampling
guidelines)

What's
so new about the RAID DX
?
Alexeter's RAID DXtm
addresses concerns about
over sampling. For HHA
toxin tests in particular,
too much sample can result
in the "hook effect"
or an antigen excess
saturation. In short,
when there is a vast excess
of toxin (or antigen), a
one-step HHA potentially can
produce false-negative
results. Essentially,
the excess antigen saturates
and overwhelms the ability
of the test to form the test
line which normally would
indicate the presence of the
toxin.
The RAID
DX
is an elegant solution to
this concern. We have
combined in a single
package, the RAID 8
and RAID TOX with our
convenient All-in-One
Collection swabs.
Operation is surprisingly
simple:
-
Sample your unknown into
a Collection swab,
-
Run the RAID 8,
-
Serial dilute the first
sample into the second
collection swab,
-
Run the RAID TOX,
-
Read the results!
|
|
In 15
minutes or less you have
screened your unknown and run
a second diluted sample across
the toxin target test to
ensure against antigen
excess. This procedure
comports with federal
collection recommendations and
eliminates the need for extra
tubes, eye droppers, pipettes
and buffer bottles.

What if
I already have purchased
the RAID 5 or RAID 8
kits?
No problem, you can order
RAID TOX kits separately to
supplement your existing
RAID supplies.

Training Tools Also
available!!!

Looking to
train your team on the
proper use of HHA's?
RAID™has available a
complete set of training
tools, designed to mimic the
performance characteristics
of the RAID™ 5 and RAID™ 8
test devices. Designed to
replicate the actual
performance characteristics
of the RAID™ 5 biothreat
detection kit. RAID™
trainers allow the
instructor to provide
hands-on training to the
student demonstrating the
proper use of hand-held
assays (HHA's) without
exposure to live agents. In
return, the student learns
valuable insight to how
HHA's perform in a real
world environment, safely
and effectively. RAID™
trainers are pre-programmed
to the instructor's
requirements, providing a
positive result for any one
of the 5 biothreats he or
she may be illustrating to
the class. B. anthracis,
Ricin toxin, Botulinum
toxin, Y. pestis
(Plague) or SEB
(Staphylococcal enterotoxin
