About

Test Strip Analyzer

Features
Read full description

Test Strip Analyzer is a quick and easy way to read and track the results of your lateral flow test strip. The analyzer detects the presence or absence of the test line to determine if a test is positive or negative. If the test is invalid (indicated by a missing control line) then the test will be classified as inconclusive. Additional functionalities are available on the Test Strip Analyzer App, including tracking and recording of operator name, location, date, time, and sample type and appearance. The sample information, raw images, and end result are stored in the App until exported. Advanced export options are available.
