Operating Procedures 

  1. Take out the Nasal Swab supplied in the kit, being careful not to touch
    the head end of the swab with your hand.
  2. Gently insert the swab (usually 1/2 to3/4 of an inch) into the nostril.
    Firmly and slowly brush against insides of nostril in a circular motion against
    the nasal wall at least 5 times. Be sure to collect any nasal drainage on the
    swab. Using the same swab, repeat the same sample collection procedure for the
    other nostril, be sure to brush both nostrils with the same swab.
  3. Remove the sealing aluminum foil from the buffer bottle, and place it
    on the shelf.

    the bottom of the tube with the swab tip. Vigorously rotate and twist the swab
    against the side of the tube at least 15 times.
  5. Squeeze the sides of the extraction tube to obtain as much liquid as
    possible and take out the swab.
  6. Close the buffer cap and press it tightly, put the swab back into the
    package. Safely dispose of the swab and the package.

Result Interpretation

 

Positive

Two red lines appear, the control line (C) and the test line (T). The
result is positive.

 

Negative

Only the red control line (C) appears. The result is negative.

 

Invalid

If no red line appears in the position of control line (C), the test
result is invalid regardless of color on the test line (T). Insufficient
specimen volume or incorrect procedures are the most common reasons for control
line (C) failure. Review the procedure and repeat the test with a new test
device.
