How to Use

 Nasal swab specimen Collection

 1. Remove the sterile swab from the pouch.

 2. Insert the swab into your nostril until you feel slight resistance (Approx. 2cm up your nose). Slowly twist the swab, rubbing it along the insides of your nostril for 5-10 times against the nasal wall.

 Note: This may feel 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 as far into the nostril. For very young children, you may need another person to steady the child’s head while swabbing.

 3. Gently remove the swab.

 4. Using the same swab, repeat step 2 in your other nostril.

 5. Withdraw the swab.

 Specimen Preparation

 1. Place the swab into the Extraction tube, ensure it is touching the bottom and stir the swab to mix well. Press the swab head against to the tube and rotate the swab for 10-15 seconds.

 2. Remove the swab while squeezing the swab head against the inside of the Extraction tube.

 3. Place the swab in the biosafety bag.

 4. Close the cap or fit the tube tip onto the tube.

 Testing
