INTERPRETATION OF THE RESULTS

Positive Test Results: 

For Chlamydia : If a line appears at both the control region (C) and test region (T), Chlamydia is POSITIVE.

For Gonorrhoea :  If a line appears at both the control region (C) and test region (T), Gonorrhoea is POSITIVE.

The shade of the lines may vary, but even if a faint or weak line appears, it should be considered a positive result.

If you have a POSITIVE result, you must consult a medical practitioner for confirmatory testing of positive results by a laboratory test and for advice regarding treatment if required.

Negative Test result:

Only Red lines appear in the control Regions (C), and No Line in the Region ( T).

Negative results may not mean that you are not infectious, and if symptoms persist to seek medical assistance.

Invalid Test result:

When no control line (C) appears in the control region for either or both tests, the results are considered invalid.

Insufficient sample volume or incorrect procedural techniques are the most likely reasons for the control line (C) failure.

If a C-Line does not appear, review the test procedure and repeat the test using a new test device. If invalid result continues after repeating, please contact Touch Biotechnology on the provided contact number or email for assistance.
