INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS
POSITIVE: Two pink lines appear in the resultwindow, one in the control region and anotherone in the test region. This indicates a positiveresult and H. Pylori antibody having been detected.
NEGATIVE: Only one pink line appears in thecontrol region (C). This indicates a negativeresult and H. Pylori antibody having not been detected.
INVALID: If the control line fails to appear, the test results are invalid regardless of the presence or absence of the test line.
NEGATIVE: Only one pink line appears in thecontrol region (C). This indicates a negativeresult and H. Pylori antibody having not been detected.
INVALID: If the control line fails to appear, the test results are invalid regardless of the presence or absence of the test line.
NOTE: Insufficient specimen volumeorincorrect procedural techniques are the mostlikely reasons for the control line failure.Review the procedure and repeat the test witha new cassette. lf problem persists,please contact your local distributor.
