Singclean’s full name is the new coronavirus antigen self-test kit, which is usually a nasal swab.
When using the new coronavirus antigen self-test kit, you must confirm the surrounding testing environment and conduct it in an orderly manner under normal temperature conditions of 14 to 30°C. The new coronavirus antigen detection kit includes a disposable sampler, an antigen detection card, a reagent and a medical waste bag. The specific operation steps are as follows: 1. We need to wash our hands before self-testing. After washing hands, open the kit, read the instructions carefully, check whether the self-testing reagent is within the shelf life, and check whether the test paper, sampling tube test card and other contents are missing or damaged. , if the above situation occurs, the detection reagent should be replaced in time.
2. Place the test card flat in a clean place, blow your nose before taking the sample, and then carefully take out the nasal swab. Be careful to avoid touching the swab head, tilt your head slightly and look directly at the tail of the swab. , enter the swab on one side of the nostril, and slowly penetrate 1 to 1.5cm back along the bottom of the lower nasal passage, then rotate the swab on the nasal cavity at least four times and stay for no less than 15 seconds. Then, use the same swab to swab the other side of the nasal cavity. Repeat the same operation.
3. Immediately place the nasal swab in the sampling tube after collecting the sample. The swab head should be rotated and mixed in the preservation solution for at least 30 seconds. Squeeze the swab through the outer wall of the sampling tube with your hands. After the first five times, squeeze the liquid from the swab head through the outer wall of the sampling tube with your hands, discard the swab, cover the sampling tube, and drop the liquid vertically into the sample hole of the test card, and wait for a certain period of time according to the reagent instructions. Interpret the results.
4. Different handling measures will be taken for different personnel when used up self-test reagents. For those under quarantine and observation, regardless of whether the test result is negative or positive, all used sampling swabs, sampling tubes, test cards, etc. should be put into sealed bags and handled by management personnel in accordance with medical waste or procedures. For community residents, if the test result is negative, all used nasal swab sampling tubes, test cards, etc. will be put into sealed bags and disposed of as general garbage. If the test result is positive, they will be handed over to the transfer personnel when transporting them. Disposed of by medical institutions as medical waste.
