## Frequently asked questions

### How are the results interpreted?

The test is positive when a bar appears on both the 'C' and 'T' parts of the cassette. It is negative if only one bar appears on the 'C' part. The test is invalid if only one bar appears on the 'T' part or if no bar appears at all.

### Does the test detect all SARS-CoV-2 variants?

Yes. Because the test uses monoclonal antibodies targeting the nucleocapsid (N) protein rather than the Spike protein, it is not impacted by major mutations found in variants such as B.1.1.7, B.1.351, P.1, or the Omicron lineages.

### Is professional training required to perform this test?

Yes, professionals must be trained in sampling procedures according to local microbiological society recommendations and manufacturer instructions. E-learning or equivalent training is recommended.
