1. Open swab package at stick end. Take out swab. Do not touch the swab tip.

2. Gently insert tip of swab into 1 nostril (1/2 to 3/4 of an inch). With children, insert swab less than 3/4 of an inch. You may need to have a second person to hold the child’s head while swabbing. Firmly rub swab in a circular motion against the inside wall of nostril 5 times.

(15 seconds). Repeat this in the other nostril using the same swab. Please use a face mask when swabbing others.

3. Remove the swab from nostril and immediately place into buffer tube. Swirl swab in buffer tube for 30 seconds.

4. Rotate swab 5 times while squeezing tube. Incorrect results may be observed if the swab is not swirled for 30 seconds or rotated 5 times.

5. Remove swab while squeezing tube. Discard swab. Swab with collected sample should be tested no more than 30 minutes after adding to the tube.

6. Attach dropper tip and mix by swirling or flicking bottom of tube.

7. Invert the buffer tube and gently squeeze 4 drops of sample into Sample Well. Discard tube.

8. Set timer and read result after 15 minutes. Do not read after 30 minutes. Discard test cassette.

Do not use nasal sprays for at least 30 minutes before collecting a nasal sample as this leads to incorrect results.

Do not read test results before 15 minutes or after 30 minutes. Results read before 15 minutes or after 30 minutes may lead to a false positive, false negative, or invalid result.

Test components are single-use. Do not reuse the test cassette, buffer liquid, or swab.

Keep testing kit and components away from children and pets before and after use.

Avoid contact with your skin, eyes, nose, and mouth.

Do not ingest any components as the reagent solution contains harmful chemicals.
