FAQ
More details
Made for convenience
Our pens are designed to be used in scenarios that don't allow for the easy mixing of reagents or buffer solutions. This makes it ideal for use in locations like schools, workplaces, day-cares, or hospitals, where it may be hard or inconvenient to perform a cassette style test. Just as quick and accurate as other RATs; but an easier, more comfortable user experience.
Summary of use
The Influenza A/B + COVID-19 Antigen Nasal Test Kit is an in-vitro immunoassay intended for the qualitative detection of antigens in nasal swab specimens from patients with COVID-19, and/or Influenza A/B (within first 4 days of symptom onset). This test doesn't discriminate between SARS-coronavirus and SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19).
Precautions for use
The test is intended for point-of-care use; and not intended for home testing (or self-testing). It obtains a preliminary result only, to aid diagnosis of COVID-19, and Influenza A/B. Please note that negative results do not preclude viral infections—test results should not be the sole basis for treatment or other management decisions.
