Frequently Asked Questions

NewGene’s Rapid COVID-19 Nasopharyngeal Swab Lateral Flow Test Kit identifies current, contagious cases of the virus, so that people may act to stop it before it spreads.

Using the Nasopharyngeal Kit

Wash and dry hands thoroughly.

Step 1

Tilt the patient’s head back slightly for about 70°

Step 2

Gently insert the sampling swab into a nostril straight back (not upwards), along the floor of the nasal passage until reaching the posterior wall of the nasopharynx – generally one half the distance from the corner of the nose to the front of the ear (about 4 to 6 cm or 1.6 – 2.5 inches).
Note: Do not force swab – if an obstruction is encountered, try the other nostril.

Step 3

Gently rub and roll the swab for 5 times, and pull out the swab slowly.

Step 4

Peel off the aluminium foil seal from a sample extraction tube.

Step 5

Place the swab into sample extraction tube. Use the swab to stir in the solution at least 5 times.

Step 6

Squeeze the sample extraction tube, and move the swab up and down for at least 3 times to expel any sample solution from the swab. Discard the swab properly.

Step 7

Insert the tube cap firmly on the sample extraction tube.

TESTING PROCEDURE

Note: Store the test devices and specimens to room temperature (15-30°C or 59-86°F) prior to testing.

Step 1

Flick the bottom of the tube to mix sample solution.

Step 2

Take out a test card from an aluminium foil pouch. Place the test card on a table. Hold the tube upside down vertically. Squeeze the tube to expel 3 drops of the sample solution into the loading well on a test card.

Step 3

You can usually read the result at 3 to 15 minutes. However, you can read it up 15 to 30 minutes. The result is considered inaccurate and invalid after 30 minutes. Note: DO NOT reload sample solution to the loading well of a used test card.

The Readings

Negative(-): A red band appears at C line while no red band appears at T line in 15 to 30 minutes after sample loading.
