How to use

1. Roll the swab firmly around the inside of your nostril, making 5 complete circles.
2. Using the the same swab repeat this process for the other nostril to ensure an adequate amount of specimen is collected.
3. Place the swab into the extraction tube, rotate the swab for about 10 seconds and then press the swab head against the tube wall 3 times to release the antigen in the sab.
4. Hold the extraction tube vertically and add two drops of the test specimens into the specimen well.
5. Start your timer.
6. Read results at 15 minutes.
7. Do not read results after 30 minutes.
