Reading the Test Results
Positive results are shown in red and with a +after the substance line. Negative
results are shown in green and with a -after the substance line.
The numbers given after the substance in the results screen represent the line
ratio: the intensity of the test line divided by the intensity of the control line.
Ratio < 0.9: Positive
Ratio 0.9 – 1.1: Weak positive
Ratio >1.1: Negative
Verification procedure
Verify the accuracy of the measurements performed with the MilkSafe™ Portable
Reader by reading standard strips. The standard strips with 4 lines can be used to
verify the results of MilkSafe™ 2BC while standard strips with 5 lines can be used
to verify the results of MilkSafe™ 3BTC, 3BTS and 4BTSC.
Select the standard strip corresponding to the test you are using.
Complete step 3 through 10 in section Performing a test with the standard
strip. The strip is ready for use.
The obtained ratios for each substance line should be 1.0 ± 0.1. If the ratios
exceed 1.0 ± 0.2, perform the reading again. If the ratios again exceed
1.0 ± 0.2, please contact your local Chr. Hansen representative.
