Test Principles

The Covid 19 Antigen Rapid POC Tests are nasopharyngeal lateral flow assays, which detect nucleocapsid protein antigens specific to SARS-CoV-2. The procedure for collecting a sample is simple and straightforward: collect the nasopharyngeal swab, place and rotate the swab in the extraction vial, and squeeze three drops of the sample into the sample well. Within ten minutes, you will have one of three results: positive, negative, or invalid.
