Will Mupirocin affect Syphilis test?

I took 7.5-week syphilis test and the nurse told me negative. But, I thought I applied mupirocin onto my face because of a minor injury. So I am wondering if mupirocin could affect my test result and made it false-negative? Please help me

Oops, one last question, I also applied Aureomycin onto my ear piercing which was injured, would Aureomycin affect the syphilis test?
