A test is positive if a colored line appears under the FeLV (L) or FIV (I) areas and a line appears under the Control (C) area. Any intensity of the Test line L or I areas should be considered positive. Colored lines may be lighter or darker than each other.

Negative Results

The test is negative if only one line appears at the Control line (C) area.

Invalid Results

The test is invalid if no colored line appears at the Control line (C) area even if a colored line appears in the Test line L or I areas. If a colored line does not appear in the C area, the test is invalid and should be repeated.
