4. Petunjuk Pengoperasian

Follow these steps precisely to perform the INDICAID COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test:

Step 1: Collect Nasal Swab Sample
Carefully open the sterile nasal swab package. Insert the entire soft tip of the swab into one nostril about 1/2 to 3/4 inch (1 to 1.5 cm) until resistance is met. Rotate the swab 5 times against the nasal wall. Using the same swab, repeat the process in the other nostril. Withdraw the swab from the nostril.

Langkah 2: Siapkan Sample
Unscrew the cap of the buffer solution vial. Insert the swab tip into the buffer solution vial. Swirl the swab vigorously in the solution 10 times, pressing the tip against the bottom and sides of the vial to ensure the sample is thoroughly mixed with the buffer. Remove the swab while squeezing the sides of the vial to extract as much liquid as possible from the swab tip. Dispose of the swab in a biohazard bag or household waste.
Step 3: Apply Sample to Test Device
Place the dropper cap firmly onto the buffer solution vial. Invert the vial and add three (3) drops of the solution into the sample well (S) of the test device. Do not touch the test device with the dropper tip.

Langkah 4: Tunggu Hasil
Atur timer selama 20 menit. Baca hasilnya tepat pada menit ke-20. Jangan membaca hasilnya sebelum 20 menit atau setelah 25 menit, karena hal ini dapat menyebabkan pembacaan yang tidak akurat.

5. Interpretasi Hasil

Refer to Image 4.2 for visual examples of result interpretations. The test device has two lines: a Control Line (C) and a Test Line (T).

Hasil Positif: Two colored lines appear. One colored line appears at the Control Line (C) region and another colored line appears at the Test Line (T) region. Any faint line at the T region should be considered positive. A positive result indicates the presence of SARS-CoV-2 antigens.
Hasil Negatif: One colored line appears at the Control Line (C) region. No colored line appears at the Test Line (T) region. A negative result indicates that SARS-CoV-2 antigens were not detected.
Hasil Tidak Valid: No colored line appears at the Control Line (C) region, or only a colored line appears at the Test Line (T) region. An invalid result indicates that the test did not work correctly. In this case, discard the test and repeat with a new test kit. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

A positive result does not rule out co-infections with other pathogens. A negative result does not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or patient management decisions.

6. Perawatan dan Penyimpanan

Proper handling and storage ensure the reliability of the test kit.

Penyimpanan: Store the test kit at room temperature, between 2°C to 30°C (36°F to 86°F), away from direct sunlight and moisture.
Kedaluwarsa: Do not use the test kit beyond the expiration date printed on the packaging. The FDA has granted a shelf-life extension for this product, increasing its shelf life from 6 months to 15 months. Always check the updated expiration date if available.
Pembuangan: After use, place all test components in a sealed plastic bag and dispose of them with household waste according to local regulations.
