A cervical secretion sample is taken with a sterile Dacron swab from the cervix by leaving the Dacron swab in the cervix for ten to fifteen seconds. This allows the swab to absorb the cervical secretion specimen.
The Dacron swab is then placed in the extraction solution provided and swirled around vigorously for ten seconds.
After extraction, dip the yellow area of the dipstick into the extraction solution and hold it there until the liquid front reaches the result area.
Then simply remove the dipstick from the solution and place it in a horizontal position.
A positive test result can be seen as soon as two blue lines - a control line and a positive line - appear in the result area.
If, after five minutes, only the control line has appeared, the test result is negative.
