It is a lot larger box than the earlier supplied tests. It has a foam swabs and vials of a reagent. After the swab is inserted into the vial, stirred and left sitting in the reagent one minute it is removed. A test strip is then inserted into the vial which must be supported upright. After ten minutes the strip is compared to printing on the instructions. No transferring of solution or drops in a tray. The vacuum formed plastic insert has a pocket to hold the vial during the test.

This is very different that the earlier tests.
