for antigenscoronavirusSARS-COV-2

SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic rapid test for the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 antigen (N protein) in human nasopharyngeal swab samples. Background The Coronavirus disease is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The SARS-CoV-2 is a β-coronavirus, which is an enveloped non-segmented positive-sense RNA virus. It is spread by human-to-human transmission via droplets or direct contact, and infection has been estimated to have a mean incubation period of 6.4 days and a basic reproduction number of 2.24-3.58. Among patients with pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2, fever was the most common symptom, followed by cough. The main IVD assays used for the Coronavirus disease employ real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) that takes a few hours. The availability of a cost-effective, rapid point-of-care diagnostic test is critical to enable healthcare professionals to aid in the diagnosis of patients and prevent further spread of the virus. Antigen tests will play a critical role in the fight against the Coronavirus disease. Benefits No cross-infection No pain, high efficiency, suitable for larger-scale use, fast consumption
