Instructions - PSA Prostate
Before performing your test:
Wash your hands thoroughly
Read the instructions carefully
Ensure that all of the following items are included
1. Wash your hands thoroughly and then remove the test cassette (D) from the sealed bag and place it on a flat, even surface.
2. Remove the round cap from the needle (A) and prick your fingertip.
3. Draw up 6+ drops of blood with the provided pipette (C). (It is very important that you obtain 6 large drops. Too few drops will result in no reading.) Surface tension may form under the blood, preventing the cassette from drawing in the blood. If this occurs, gently agitate the pipette to break the surface tension.
4. If your blood is too thick and the cassette does not absorb it properly, add 2 drops of buffer solution (B).
5. Add the blood to the bowl-shaped section marked “S” on the test cassette.
6. Read the test result within 10-20 minutes. NOTE! The result is invalid after 20 minutes.
