Negative and positive results on the Schistosoma mansoni cercarial transformation fluid rapid diagnostic test (SmCTF-RDT). The negative test shows the presence of only one band – the control, whereas the positive test shows the presence of a second band. This band shows that there has been a reaction between antibodies in the sample and SmCTF.
