SARS-COV-2 Antigen Rapid Test Device (Covid 19)

Description

SARS-CoV-2 (Corona virus) Antigen Saliva Rapid TestDevice is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of specific antigens from SARS-CoV-2 present in human saliva within the first 7 days of symptom onset.

PROCEDURE

Bring tests, specimens, and/or controls to room temperature (15-30°C) before use.

• • Remove the test from its sealed pouch, and place it on a clean, level surface. Label the device with patient or control identification. For best results, the assay should be performed within one hour.
  • Gently mix Extraction reagent solution. Add 6 drops(about 200ul) of the Extraction Solution into the Extraction tube.
  • Place the patient swab specimen into the Extraction Tube. Roll the swab at least 10 times while pressing the swab against the bottom and side of the Extraction Tube. Roll the swab head against the inside of the Extraction Tube as you remove it. Try to release as much liquid as possible. Dispose of the used swab in accordance with your biohazard waste disposal protocol.
  • Put on the tube tip, then add 3 drops (about 120ul)  of extracted sample into the sample well. Do not handle or move the Test Device until the test is complete and ready for reading.
  • As the test begins to work, color will migrate across the membrane. Wait for the colored band(s) to appear. The result should be read at 10 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 20 minutes.
