• 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

• 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
