Best results are obtained if the test is performed immediately after opening the foil pouch.\u003cbr\u003e Place the test device on a flat surface. Invert the tube and place 2 drops of solution into the well (S) of the test device, then start the timer. Do not move the device while performing the test.\u003cbr\u003e Read the results after 15 minutes.

One colored line should appear in the control region (C) and another colored line should appear in the test region (T). A positive result means that the person is highly likely infected with COVID-19; positive samples must be confirmed. Immediately self-isolate as required by local regulations and contact your healthcare provider or district health care provider as directed by local authorities. The test should be verified with a confirmatory molecular (PCR) test, and instructions on the next steps will be provided. \u003cbr\u003e*NOTE: The intensity of the color in the test line region (T) varies depending on the number of SARS-CoV-2 antigens present in the specimen. Therefore, the presence of any shade of color in the test region (T) should be interpreted as a POSITIVE result.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - NEGATIVE: Only one colored line appears in the control region (C). No colored line appears in the test region (T). It is unlikely that the person has COVID-19. However, this test may give an incorrect result (a false negative) in some people with COVID-19. This means that you may have COVID-19 even if the test results are negative. \u003cbr\u003eIf you experience symptoms such as headache, migraine, fever, or loss of taste or smell, contact your nearest healthcare provider in accordance with your local health authority's guidelines. You can also repeat the test with a new kit.

It's recommended to repeat the test 1-2 days later or go to the hospital to rule out infection.\u003cbr\u003e Positive COVID-19 results may be due to infection with non-SARS-CoV-2 virus strains or other interfering factors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eConservation\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Store the test at temperatures between 2-30°C.
