Rapid Antigen Test for COVID-19
  • The COVID-19 pandemic has been devastating and
    testing that provide fast test results are
    needed.
  • COVID-19 rapid antigen tests provide a ray of
    hope. Various antigen tests provide results in
    different time durations. Our test offers an
    alternative to PCR testing with fast results in
    just 10 minutes.

What is COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Testing?
  • Rapid antigen testing for COVID-19 is the
    quickest way to test an individual to determine
    their status for COVID-19.
  • COVID-19 rapid antigen tests detect proteins that
    are part of the virus.
  • The presence of a specific viral antigen such as
    COVID-19 implies current viral infection.
  • Antigen tests are relatively inexpensive, and
    most can be used at the point of care.
  • Most of the currently authorized tests return
    results in approximately 10-15 minutes.

How does COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Detection test
work?
  • While other diagnostic tests for COVID-19, known
    as PCR tests, look for genetic material from the
    virus, the antigen test looks for molecules on
    the surface of the virus.
  • Antigen tests  often referred to as rapid tests
     work by mixing the sample with a solution that
    unleashes specific viral proteins.
  • That combination is then applied to a paper strip
    that contains a bespoke antibody optimized to
    bind these proteins if they are present.
  • Like a home pregnancy test the result is
    reflected as a band on the paper strip.
