COVID-19 rapid diagnostic test S3104E

coronavirusSARS-COV-2laboratory

The Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Nucleic Acid Diagnostic Kit (PCR-Fluorescence Probing) is a real-time RT-PCR test intended for the qualitative detection of nucleic acid from SARSCoV-2 in nasopharyngeal swabs, oropharyngeal (throat) swabs, anterior nasal swabs, midturbinate swabs, nasal washes and nasal aspirates from individuals who are suspected of COVID-19 by their healthcare provider. Testing is limited to laboratories certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), 42 U.S.C. §263a, that meet requirements to perform high complexity tests. Results are for the identification of SARS-CoV-2 RNA. The SARS-CoV-2 RNA is generally detectable in respiratory specimens during the acute phase of infection. Positive results are indicative of the presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA; clinical correlation with patient history and other diagnostic information is necessary to determine patient infection status. Positive results do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease. Negative results do not preclude SARS-CoV-2 infection and should not be used as the sole basis for patient management decisions. Negative results must be combined with clinical observations, patient history, and epidemiological information. Performance One-tube/fast release technology Simple operation process, less specialist training Room temperature lysis, less contamination Sampling types: nasopharyngeal swabs, oropharyngeal (throat) swabs, anterior nasal swabs, midturbinate swabs, nasal washes and nasal spirates Internal control: human housekeeping gene RNase P
