Strep B Rapid Test

The Strep B rapid test is easy to carry out and suitable for detecting Group B streptococci in women. To perform the test, you only need a vaginal or rectal swab from the patient. The sample is then tested with help of the included reagents and extraction solution. The test results can be read on the test cassette after 10 minutes.

To make sure that the test procedure has been followed correctly, the Strep B test is equipped with a control line, which minimises the risk of incorrect measurements caused by e.g. a too small amount of sample material.
