Before performing the saliva rapid test, it is important to observe the following precautions:
- Do not place anything in the mouth (food, beverages, chewing gum, tobacco products) for 10 minutes prior to collection of saliva.

The detection of the Sars-CoV-2 antigens in saliva using this kit is possible by performing the folllowing 4 steps:
- Specimen collection
- Specimen preparation
- Testing
- Read the result
After 15 minutes, the device can show 3 different results:
- Positive: 2 colored lines appears. One in the control region (C) and the other in the test region (T)
- Negative: only one colored line appears in the control region (C).
- Invalid: the colored line in the control region (C) does not appear.
In case of positive results immediately go into self-isolation and immediately contact your general doctor or the local health department. The result will be checked by a PCR confirmation test.
