TEST PROCEDURE

Allow the test, reagents, specimen, and/or controls to reach room temperature (15-30°C) prior to testing.

1. 1. Determine the day to begin testing. (See the above section:“WHEN TO STARTTESTING”).
2. 2. Bring the pouch to room temperature before opening it. Remove the test cassette from the sealed pouch and use it within one hour.
3. 3. Place the test cassette on a clean and level surface. Hold the sample dropper vertically and transfer 3 drops of urine (approx.90μl) to the specimen well of the test cassette, and then start the timer. Avoid trapping air bubbles in the specimen well. See illustration below.
4. 4. Wait for the red line(s) to appear. Read the result at 5 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 10 minutes.

5. INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS
   
   

   POSITIVE: Two colored bands appear on the membrane. And the line in test line region (T) is the same as or darker than the one in the control line region (C). This indicates probable ovulation in 24-36 hours.One band appears in the control region (C) and another band appears in the test region (T).

   NEGATIVE: Two lines are visible, but the line in the test line region (T) is lighter than the one in the control line region (C), or if there is no line in the test line region (T). This indicates that no LH surge has been detected.

   INVALID: Control band fails to appear. Insufficient specimen volume or incorrect procedural techniques are the most likely reasons for control line failure. Please review the procedure and repeat with a new test. If the problem persists, discontinue using the kit immediately and contact your local distributor.

   LIMITATIONS OF THE TEST
