As New COVID-19 Variant Spreads Rapid Antigen Testing Found Inefficient

As New COVID-19 Variant Spreads Rapid Antigen Testing Found Inefficient

Rapid At-Home COVID-19 Antigen Tests Have Reportedly Provided 44% Accuracy

The latest COVID-19 variant, Pirola, has raised awareness among scientists due to its increased number of mutations. This new variant is suspected to be stronger and more contagious than previous strains. The concern arises as many Rapid At-Home COVID-19 tests have been reported to be ineffective in diagnosing positive COVID-19 samples due to viral load variance. PCR testing remains the most accurate form of testing for COVID-19, and combined with the iSWAB-RC-EL transport media, results can be achieved in less time.

The iSWAB-RC-EL is FDA Cleared for infectious disease detection of SARS-CoV-2 (from nasal and saliva samples) using legally marketed molecular diagnostic assays.

Key Advantages:

-Suitable for use without a nucleic acid extraction step.
-Samples are stable for several weeks at ambient temperature
-Non-hazardous, alcohol-free, and guanidine-free
-Efficient viral inactivation
