How the test works

Self-test (nasal swab)

1. Insert the swab – insert the swab approximately 2.5 cm into one nostril and rotate 5 times along the inner wall.
2. Second nostril – repeat the process with the same swab in the other nostril.
3. Extract the sample – insert the swab into the extraction tube with buffer solution, rotate 8–10 times and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
4. Attach the cap – press the dropper cap firmly onto the tube.
5. Run the test – apply 3 drops of the solution into the specimen well(s).
6. Read the result – read after 10 minutes. Do not interpret after 20 minutes.

Professional use

In addition to the anterior nasal swab, the test also supports nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs – ideal for use in medical practices, emergency departments and testing centers.

Frequently asked questions

What makes the SAFECARE combo test different from individual tests?

Instead of performing five separate tests, the SAFECARE 5-in-1 test screens for all relevant respiratory pathogens with a single swab. This is faster, more comfortable and more cost-effective – especially for children and in high-volume clinical settings.

How quickly do I get my result?

After just 10 minutes. This makes the SAFECARE combo test one of the fastest 5-in-1 respiratory tests available.

Which swab methods are supported?

For self-testing at home: anterior nasal swab. For professional use: additionally nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs. This makes the test particularly versatile for practices and clinics.

Can the test detect co-infections?

Yes. Each pathogen has its own dedicated test region. If you are infected with both Influenza A and RSV simultaneously, for example, both test lines will appear positive.

Are volume discounts available?

Yes. We offer tiered pricing for clinics, pharmacies and institutions. Contact us for a customized quote.
