    Swab Nose

    Insert the swab into one nostril (Approx. 2 cm deep).

    Slowly rotate the swab 5-10 times, rubbing it against the nasal wall.

    Note: This may feel slightly uncomfortable. Do not insert the swab any deeper if you feel strong resistance or pain. When the nasal mucosa is damaged or bleeding, nasal swab collection is not recommended. If you are swabbing others, please wear a face mask. With children, you may not need to insert the swab so deep into the nostril. For very young children, you may need another person to steady the child’s head while swabbing.

    COVID-19/RSV/Adeno Positive - image 1
    11

    COVID-19/RSV/Adeno Positive

    Two colored lines appear in the COVID-19/RSV/Adeno window.

    One colored line should be in the control line region (C) and the other colored line should be in the test line region (T).

    Note: The intensity of the colored line in the test line region (T) varies based on the amount of SARS-CoV-2, RSV, Adenovirus antigen present in the specimen. Thus any shade of a colored line in the test line region (T) should be considered a positive result.

    FLU A Positive - image 1
    12

    FLU A Positive

    Two colored lines appear in the FLU A+B window.

    One colored line should be in the control line region (C) and the other colored line should be in the FLU A region (A).

    Note: The intensity of the colored line in the test line region (A) varies based on the amount of Influenza A antigen present in the specimen. Thus any shade of a colored line in the test line region (A) should be considered a positive result.

    FLU B Positive - image 1
    13

    FLU B Positive

    Two colored lines appear in the FLU A+B window.

    One colored line should be in the control line region (C) and the other colored line should be in the FLU B region (B).

    Note: The intensity of the colored line in the test line region (B) varies based on the amount of Influenza B antigen present in the specimen. Thus any shade of a colored line in the test line region (B) should be considered a positive result.

    FLU A + FLU B Positive - image 1
    14

    FLU A + FLU B Positive

    Three colored lines appear in the FLU A+B window.

    One colored line should be in the control line region (C) and two colored lines should be in the FLU A region (A) and FLU B region (B) respectively.

    Note: The intensity of the colored line in the test line region (B/A) varies based on the amount of Influenza A, Influenza B, antigen present in the specimen. Thus any shade of a colored line in the test line region (B/A) should be considered a positive result.

    Negative Results - image 1
    15

    Negative Results

    Only one colored line appears in the control line region (C).

    No colored line appears in the test line regions (T/B/A). It indicates that there are no SARS-CoV-2/ Influenza A/Influenza B/RSV/Adenovirus antigens in the specimen or that their amount is too small to be detected.

    Invalid Resuls - image 1
    16

    Invalid Resuls

    The line in the control line region (C) fails to appear.

    Incorrect testing procedure or test reagent deterioration are the most likely reasons. Please review the testing procedure and repeat the test with a new test kit.
