Interpreting Results
Positive Result
Any colour development at Line 1 or Line 2 indicates the presence of bacteria in the sample.
- If both line 1 and line 2 are present, a gram-negative organism has been detected
- If line 2 is present and line 1 is absent then a gram-positive organism has likely been detected

Negative Result
If only the Control Line develops colour - no bacteria detected

Invalid Result
If the Control Line does not develop colour, the result is invalid - Repeat test
