FRAUTEST amnio - the test pads to determine the leakage of amniotic fluid
Test leakage of amniotic vodFRAUTEST amnio - a noninvasive test for self-diagnosis, easy to use at home. The test can distinguish between the amniotic fluid of heavy vaginal secretions and urine, thus preventing unnecessary visits to the doctor frequently, which can be regarded as a "false alarm".
The test strip consists of a conventional gasket with the inclusion of a test strip with a patented polymer containing a colorimetric indicator that changes color to yellow green-blue upon contact with body fluids with a high pH-indicator. The normal vaginal pH is 3,8-4,5 pH 6.5-7 amniotic fluid. The test strip changes color when it begins to communicate with the fluid, which has a pH greater than 5.5.
The test distinguishes the amniotic fluid from urine through the use of a polymer matrix, which uses a special composition of ingredients, return to change the color back to yellow in response to the concentrations of ammonia, which is included in the urine within 30 minutes (drying time).
PH indicator is linked to the polymer and polyester is in the film, which is inserted between the top two layers of absorbent pads. Physical contact with a woman's body diagnostic component is completely absent.
Testing
Before testing, make sure that the test package is sealed, it should be open immediately before analysis. Each package of test for single use.
Testing for leakage of amniotic fluid
2. Attach the pad in underwear (Fig. 1), the projecting part in advance. Yellow liner should be in front of the vagina. The test pad can be worn as a regular pad for 12 hours or can be removed earlier, as soon as you feel oozing fluid.
3. When the test strip moist, or when you are ready to change it, prepare the enclosed plastic case.
4. Remove the liner from the pad by pulling him by the protruding portion (Fig. 2).

EVALUATION RESULTS
Positive result

- Do not use the test pad in less than 12 hours after intercourse, vaginal douching, use of vaginal suppositories;
- During the bleeding when reading the results, you may need professional help;
- If the test result is negative, and the copious continue, you should conduct a repeat test or to see a doctor;
