What is Gmate Saliva Antigen Test Kit?
Gmate Covid Saliva Home Kit has been designed to be an easy to use diagnostic kit for the Covid virus infection. It can be performed by an individual at home or anywhere.
How does Gmate work?
The Gmate Saliva Antigen Test is an RTK Antigen test, but it only uses a saliva sample to detect the presence or absence of the SARS-CoV-2 antigen.
Gmate has a sensitivity of 90.9% and a specificity of 100%, meaning it is 90.9% accurate at generating a positive result, and 100% accurate at generating a negative result.
How do I use Gmate?
The Gmate test takes just five steps but you must first rinse your mouth with water. 30 minutes before conducting the test, you should not eat, drink or smoke.
Where can I get Gmate?
Gmate is officially priced at RM39.90 and it can be purchased at any Alpro Pharmacy outlet or Oneclick.
What should you do if you’re tested positive?
If you’re tested positive, you must report to the Ministry of Health via MySejahtera. Just open the app, go to the home screen and tap on HelpDesk. Select “F. I am Covid-19 positive and would like to report my results”.
After filling up your personal details, you can choose which test was conducted (RTK Antigen Naso-oropharyngeal or RTK Antigen Saliva). You are also required to attach a photo of the test result.
If your results return negative, you must still continue to adhere to the SOP including wearing a face mask and to social distance.
