Inspect the expiration date on the Intercept® collection
device packaging and open the outer packaging containing
the collection pad and the specimen vial. Place the
specimen vial on a flat surface in view of the donor.
Instruct the donor to remove the handle and remove the collection
device from the packaging sleeve. |
 |
Instruct
the donor to place the collection pad between the lower
cheek and gums and gently rub the pad back and forth
along the gum line until the pad is moist. |
 |
Once
moist, leave collection pad between cheek and gums for
a full two (2) minutes. |
|
After 2 minutes, have the donor open
the specimen vial in an upright position, with the tip
pointed downward, by gently rocking the cap back and
forth to avoid spilling the contents. Instruct the
donor to push the collection pad into the specimen vial
as far as it will go. |
 |
Instruct
the donor to snap the collection wand at the scored
line against the side of the vial. Instruct the donor
to not tilt the vial or spill the fluid inside.
