The veterinarian or the technician uses the swab supplied along with the kit to collect samples from cloaca or trachea. Altenatively, the serum can also be used. The swab is then inserted into the assay diluent and agitated sufficiently to ensure good sample extraction. 3 drops of the specimen is then added to the sample hole. Results can be read in just 5-10 minutes - the control line, marked C, should always appear if the test procedure is performed properly and the test reagents are working. The appearance of a red test line, marked T, indicates a positive result.
