BIOCREDIT COVID-19 Ag is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 antigen in human nasopharynx. This test is for in-vitro professional diagnostic use and intended as an aid to early diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection in patient with clinical symptoms. It provides only an initial screening test result and more specific alternative diagnosis methods should be performed in order to confirm COVID-19 infection. BIOCREDIT COVID-19 Ag has been evaluated with clinical nasopharyngeal specimens which were identified with the RT-PCR test in Korea and Romania.
