COVID-19

Testing Solutions

This test is intended for the qualitative detection of nucleocapsid protein antigen from SARS-CoV-2 from individuals with or without symptoms or other epidemiological reasons to suspect COVID-19 when tested twice over two or three days with at least 24 hours and no more than 48 hours between tests. This test is authorized for non-prescription, home use with self-collected (unobserved) direct anterior nasal swab specimens from individuals aged 14 years or older, or with adult collected anterior nasal swab specimens from individuals aged 2 years or older.

This product has not been FDA cleared or approved; but has been authorized by FDA under an EUA.  This product has been authorized only for the detection of proteins from SARS- CoV-2, not for any other viruses or pathogens; and, this product is only authorized for the duration of the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of emergency use of in vitro diagnostics for detection and/or diagnosis of COVID-19 under Section 564(b)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360bbb3(b)(1), unless the declaration is terminated or authorization is revoked sooner.

NOTE: mutated Omicron Variant should not affect performance since test detects the nucleocapsid protein antigen (“N-Protein”) of the virus.*
