About The Coeliac Self Test

Complete your Coeliac Self Test at home to gain a fast indication of the presence of anti-deamidated gliadin (anti-DGP) antibodies and if you may be Coeliac.

Coeliac Disease is associated with many symptoms, such as diarrhoea, bloating, nausea, weight loss, tiredness and skin ailments. Discovering the presence of these IgA and IgG antibodies against deamidated gliadin peptides (anti-DGP) helps to determine if changing your diet or taking supplements would be an important part of your health regime.

This test uses a small blood sample in a compact testing kit mailed directly to you.

The easy-to-use CE-approved testing kit is mailed immediately on purchase and should reach you within 1-3 working days.

In the box, there will be full instructions provided on how to complete the sample and testing process in 10 minutes.

How It Works

Receive your test kit in the post.
Clean your finger and use the finger prick lancet to release blood.
Fill the capillary dropper with blood up to the black line.
Dispense the blood from the filled capillary into the buffer tube, shake vigorously for 10 seconds.
Unscrew the blue cap from the capillary dropper and deposit 3 drops of sample solution into the sample (S) area.
Wait 10 minutes for the results to appear. NOTE: Do not interpret before 10 minutes or after 15 minutes as the results may be inaccurate.

More about the Coeliac Self Test

Coeliac disease is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of the small intestine. Disease symptoms include diarrhoea, weight loss, abdominal pain and bloating, malnutrition and skin reactions. This inflammation is caused by gliadin, the protein component of gluten, contained in wheat, barley, rye, spelt and many other cereals. Recent studies have shown that subjects affected by coeliac disease produce specific antibodies (class IgA and IgG) against deamidated gliadin peptides (anti-DGP). These antibodies have high specificity and sensitivity in coeliac disease, which permits very accurate diagnosis. Early diagnosis can reduce the progression of intestinal damage and prevent more serious complications.

The Coeliac Self Test is a rapid immunochromatographic test to reveal the presence of class IgA and IgG anti-DGP antibodies in whole blood for coeliac disease screening.
