CoviSelf Covid 19 Rapid Antigen Self Test Kit is the first COVID-19 self-test kit in India. It is an in vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative detection of COVID-19 antigen in nasal swab specimen directly from individuals with or without symptoms or with other epidemiological reasons to suspect COVID-19.
Main benefit is that user of this kit will get the test results within 20 minutes from the safety of their own house. The test reports can be checked using the MyLab app. Both testing materials, a guidelines for use (IFU) leaflet, and a biohazard bag to properly dispose of test materials will be included with each package. To minimise pain, the procedure is intended to be performed using a nasal swab rather than a deep nasopharyngeal swab.
Some key features:-
Product Specifications and Features:
- Intelligently Designed Tube: Filled with a solution that inactivates the virus and it has been designed in the manner to control and contain biohazard
- Unique QR Code: For accurate report generation
- Biohazard Bag: Biohazard bag for easy and safe disposable
- Safe Swab: Swab is designed intelligently for bio containment
How to identify the result:-
- If both the quality control line “C” and the detection line appear, the novel coronavirus antigen has been detected and the result is negative for the antigen. (Look very closely, as the bottom line can be very faint. Any pink/purple line visible indicates a positive result)
- If there is only a quality control line “C” and no test line “T”, it indicates that the result is negative
How to use this kit:-
- Find the pre-filled buffer tube and remove it out of the pouch and tap vertically on the horizontal surface, to make sure the extraction buffer settles at the bottom of the tube
- Unscrew the cap and hold the tube in your hand. Do not spill the content of the tube
Step 1:Open the swab package from the tail end and take the swab out (Do not touch the swab head)
Sampling with a nasal swab:
- Using the sterile swab provided in the kit, carefully insert the swab into one nostril. The swab tip should be inserted up to 2-4cm or until resistance is met
- Roll the swab 5 times inside the nostril to ensure that cells are collected
- Using the same swab, repeat this process for the other nostril to ensure that an adequate sample is collected from both the nasal cavities
- Withdraw the swab from the nasal cavity. The specimen is now ready for testing using the extraction buffer provided in the test kit
Step 2:
- Take the nasal swab and dip in the pre-filled extraction tube. Pinch the tube at the bottom and swirl the nasal swab 10 times ensuring the swab is immersed well in the extraction buffer
- Find the breakpoint of the swab. Break the swab at the breakpoint. Discard the remainder of the swab. Mix well
Step 3:
- Do not leave the test device unused once opened for more than 5 minutes. Add 2 full drops of extracted antigen buffer mixture into the sample well of the test device, by pressing the tube and wait for 10-15min for the results to appear
- Read the results within 20 minutes. Strong positive results can be reported within 10-15 minutes. Results that appear after 20 minutes are not valid (Phone will give you the alarm to capture the test results)
Step 4:
- Take the test device and click a picture (Wait for the app to analyse and display your COVID-19 test results)
- The swab is inserted in the lysis buffer which destroys the COVID-19/respiratory viruses. This tube (with swab head inside), is to be put inside the waste disposal bag and this bag can be thrown in the household waste
