To begin with the test, nothing should be eaten or drunk before 10 minutes of administering the test. Then collect the saliva of the candidate with the sponge or absorbent pad given in the kit. For this keep the sponge inside the candidate’s mouth for at least 3 minutes along the gums or tongue. One should not bite or chew the sponge. Care should be taken if the temperature of the specimen and the test container are at the room temperature that is between 60-86°F or 15-30°C before starting. Next remove the sponge from the mouth and insert it into the testing kit, sponge first and then lock the screw cap tightly. Keep the test device upright while the test is going on. After 3 to 5 minutes observe the colour bands that are formed in the testing area. Do not depend upon the result after 20 minutes because it would be invalid. Then one can analyse the test result and find out if it is positive or negative.
If one coloured band appears in control region and one coloured band in testing region, then the result is Negative. It indicates that the drug concentration is well below the cut-off level.
If a coloured band is seen in the control region and no coloured band is visible in the testing region, then the result is Positive. This indicates that the drug concentration is well above the cut-off level.
If the coloured band does not appear in the control region then the result is Invalid.
