Test Device Pouch
The sealed membrane unit where your result appears. Individually wrapped for freshness and accuracy.

Bottles 1, 2, and 3
Three pre-filled solution bottles used in sequence during the test. Bottle 1 is the sample diluent, Bottle 2 is the color developer, and Bottle 3 is the clarifying solution.
Instructions for Use
Clear, illustrated step-by-step guide included in every kit. Available in English and French.
Built on Proven Science
INSTI is powered by a proprietary flow-through immunoassay, a fundamentally different approach from the lateral flow strips used in most rapid tests. Instead of waiting for a sample to migrate slowly across a test strip, INSTI's technology filters the sample directly through the test membrane. The result: faster antibody detection and a clear, easy-to-read visual outcome.
This is the same core technology used in the professional INSTI HIV-1/HIV-2 Antibody Test, which has been trusted by healthcare providers, hospitals, and public health organizations around the world for nearly two decades. Over 15 million INSTI tests have been performed globally.
For you, that means a self test built on clinical-grade science, not a watered-down version of it.
Trusted by Professionals Worldwide
The INSTI platform is used by healthcare providers, public health organizations, and testing programs in over 50 countries. Over 15 million INSTI tests performed globally. The same technology trusted in clinics, hospitals, and outreach programs now available for home use.
When accuracy matters, professionals choose INSTI.
THREE STEPS. ONE MINUTE. DONE.
Testing yourself for HIV has never been simpler. Here's exactly how it works:
Place the test device on a flat surface. Shake Bottle 1 four times and pour all the liquid into the device. Wait for it to absorb. Repeat with Bottle 2, then Bottle 3. Each step takes just seconds.
ADD THE SOLUTIONS
Your result appears immediately on the test device. One dot (the control dot) means negative. Two dots mean a preliminary positive result that should be confirmed by a healthcare professional. If the control dot does not appear, the test is invalid and should be repeated.
