Hotgen Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Antigentest

Hotgen - Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Antigen Test
Easy-to-use, single-use test for the qualitative in vitro determination of SARS-CoV-2 antigen in human anterior nasal specimens. Results are available in approximately 15 minutes.
1. Sample Collection:
Gently insert the entire soft tip of the swab into one nostril approximately 1.5 cm until you feel some resistance. Using medium pressure, slowly rub the swab in a circular motion around the inner wall of your nose four times for a total time of 15 seconds. Repeat the same procedure with the same swab in the other nostril.

2. sample treatment
After taking the sample, soak the swab below the liquid level of the sample extraction buffer, rotate it several times and press it three times. The soaking time of the swab is at least 15 seconds. The specimen collection tube is squeezed while the swab is removed. The collection tube is then closed with the cap. The liquid in the tube is the sample after treatment.

3. sample storage: the treated sample should be tested within one hour.

Test Method
Place the test cassette and sample extraction buffer at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes and bring to room temperature. Open the aluminum foil pouch of the test cassette and place the test cassette on a flat surface. Place four drops of the treated sample into the sample hole of the test cassette. Incubate for 15 minutes at 10 to 30°C. Observe results after incubation for 15 minutes. The result obtained after 30 minutes is invalid.

Interpretation of Result Positive:
Two color bands show up in the observation window, i.e., a red or magenta line appears at the position of the quality control line (C line) and the detection line (T line), indicating that the test result of SARS-CoV-2 antibody in the sample is positive.

Negative:
A red or magenta line appears at the position of the quality control line (C line) in the observation window and no line appears at the position of the test line (T line), indicating that the test results of SARS-CoV-2 antibody in the sample are negative or the concentration is below the detection limit of the set.

Invalid: No line shows at the position of the quality control line (line C) in the observation window. Which indicates that the test is invalid.

Important note: if the test result is positive, it indicates that the samples contain SARS-CoV-2 antigen. A negative test result does not exclude the possibility of infection.

Included in the test kit: SARS-CoV-2 antigen test cassette, sample extraction buffer, disposable viral specimen swab, contaminated waste trash bag.
