SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test
Introduction
The SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test is an essential diagnostic tool designed to detect the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19. This test utilizes a rapid chromatographic immunoassay method, allowing for quick and reliable results. With the ongoing pandemic, timely detection of the virus is crucial for controlling its spread and ensuring appropriate care.
What the Test Measures
This test specifically measures the presence of SARS-CoV-2 antigens in a nasopharyngeal swab sample. Antigens are substances that trigger an immune response, and their detection indicates an active infection.
Who Should Consider This Test
The SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test is recommended for individuals who exhibit symptoms of COVID-19, such as fever, cough, and loss of taste or smell. It is also advisable for those who have been in close contact with confirmed COVID-19 cases or are part of high-risk groups.
