Operation
01. Insert the cotton swab into a nostril gently. Insert the tip of the cotton swab 2-4 cm (for children is 1-2 cm) until resistance is felt.
02. Swirl the cotton swab along the nasal mucosa 5 times within 7-10 seconds to ensure that both mucus and cells are absorbed.
Repeat the process with the same cotton swab in the other nostril to ensure that sufficient sample is taken from both nasal cavities. Pull the swab out of the nasal cavity gently.
03. Dip the head of the cotton swab into the diluent after taking the sample from the nose.
04. Squeeze the sample tube with a cotton swab 10-15 times to mix evenly so that the wall of the sample tube touches the cotton swab.
05. Keep it upright for 1 minute to keep as much sample material as possible in the diluent. Discard the cotton swab. Place the dropper on the test tube.
Test Procedure
06. Add the sample as follows. Place a clean dropper on the sample tube. Invert the sample tube so that it is perpendicular to the sample hole (S). Add 3 DROPS of the sample. Set the timer for 15 MINUTES.
07. Read the result after 15 MINUTES in sufficient lighting condition. The test result can be read at 15 MINUTES after adding the sample to the test cassette. The result after 20 minutes is invalid.
08. POSITIVE: two colored lines appear in the test cassette
NEGATIVE: only a single colored line appears in the control region (C).
