How the Test Works?
Interpreting the result
Only the result visible in the window 15 to 20 minutes after the start of the test is valid.
Reading the result
Two lines are used to read the result:
- the control line, which is C;
- the test line, which is T;
Positive
The result is positive when line C and line T appear in the window. The order in which the lines appear is not important and even if a line is pale, the result indicated is accurate.
Negative
The result is negative when only line C appears in the window.
Invalid
The result is invalid if line C is not visible in the window.
