test kits

At-home diagnostic sets

Test kits are packaged sets of materials for conducting a specific test, typically at home or in the field rather than a laboratory.

A pregnancy test kit, a COVID test kit, a water quality test kit—each contains the reagents, tools, and instructions needed to detect something specific.

I picked up a test kit at the pharmacy.
