STEP 1.
Preparation of the Buffer Tube

• The buffer tube should be inserted into the specified hole on the front of the test kit.
• Remove the buffer tube’s protective foil from the top.

STEP 2.
Collection of Nasal Specimens

• Peel back the pouch cover to reveal the sterile swab pouch. Remove the plastic end of the swab from the pouch. The swab tip should not be touched.
• Carefully slide the swab tip into one nostril until resistance is encountered.
• At least 5 times, rub the insides of the nostrils in a complete circle. Check to see whether you’re rubbing the inside of your nostril.
• Insert the same swab into the second nostril and repeat steps 2 and 3 with the same swab.

STEP 3.
Swab Roll

• Insert the swab into the tube after removing it from the nasal cavity.
• Roll the swab 6 times against the inside of the tube. Make sure the swab tip touches the tube’s bottom and sides.

STEP 4.
Allow one minute for the swab to dry

• Place the swab in a garbage bag.
• Drop the provided dropper tip into the buffer tube’s aperture.
