DESCRIPTION:
Artron COVID-19 Antigen Home Test is a rapid lateral flow immunoassay intended for the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein antigen in self-collected anterior nasal (nares) swab samples obtained from individuals aged 14 years or older or adults collected nasal swab specimens from individuals aged two years or older. This test is intended for individuals suspected of COVID-19 within the first seven days of symptom onset when tested at least twice over three days with at least 48 hours between tests, and for individuals without symptoms or other epidemiological reasons to suspect COVID-19 when tested at least three times over five days with at least 48 hours between Tests.
HOW TO USE
Tear off the aluminum foil seal from the extraction tube.
Remove a nasal swab at the stick end from the pouch.
Gently insert the SWAB 1⁄2 - 3⁄4 inch (1.3-1.9 cm) into the nostril, depending on the size of the person’s nose. Firmly rub the SWAB in a circular motion around the inside wall of EACH NOSTRIL at least 5 times or more for at least 15 seconds.
Be sure to rub BOTH nostrils with the SAME SWAB.
NOTE: 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.
NOTE: Failure to swab properly may cause false negative results.
Immediately insert the swab into the extraction tube. Swirl the swab tip vigorously in the buffer fluid at least 10 times.
Remove the swab by rotating against the extraction tube while squeezing the sides of the tube to release the liquid from the swab. Dispose of the swab in the trash.
Close the extraction tube with the provided extraction tube cap and push firmly onto the tube.
TEST PROCEDURES
Get the test cassette from the sealed pouch by tearing it at the notch and placing the cassette on a flat and dry surface. Do not touch the Test window.
Hold the extraction tube vertically (not at an angle) above the sample well, and slowly add 4 drops of the specimen without air bubbles into the sample well. DO NOT touch the card with the dropper tip while dispensing.
Read and interpret the test result in 15-30 minutes. The test result should not be read and interpreted after 30 minutes.
All used test components should be disposed of in the household waste.
DO NOT INTERPRET RESULTS AFTER 30 MINUTES.
