Veterinary rapid test kits should be handled and stored according to the product instructions. Good storage practice helps protect the kit before use and reduces avoidable test problems.
Check the Label and Instructions
Storage conditions and shelf life may differ by product. Confirm the requirements printed on the packaging and the current instructions for use.
Protect the Kit Before Use
Keep test components in their original packaging until they are needed. Avoid moisture, direct sunlight, contamination and conditions outside the stated storage range.
Check the Expiry Date and Packaging
Do not use a kit after its stated expiry date or when the pouch, seal or test device appears damaged.
Prepare for Testing Correctly
Before testing, follow the product instructions for preparation and operating conditions. Do not mix components from different products or lots unless specifically permitted.
