Analyzer-Based Tests
Regardless of test method, using an analyzer to read and interpret the results of rapid tests can provide more objective evaluations and eliminate the variability from the reading techniques of different operators. Analyzer-produced results can usually be directly transmitted electronically, which eliminates the potential for manual transcription errors.
