Interpreting OratectXP®Test Results
Invalid Result
When no colored band appears in the
CONTROL (C) region, the test is
invalid even if there is a band in the
test region. Repeat the test with a new
device.
Negative Result
Colored bands should be observed:
One in the CONTROL (C) region
One in the specific TEST region
The color of the test band may be
slightly darker or lighter than the control
band. Any visible band that can be seen
is a negative result.
Presumptive Positive Result
A colored band at the CONTROL (C)
region should be observed. When
there is no colored band at the
specific TEST region, the test is
presumptive positive for that particular
drug.
