RAPID IMMUNOCHROMATOGRAPHIC SEROLOGICAL ASSAY

for the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 antigen in nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal samples.

NG-TEST® SARS-CoV-2 Ag detects the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal secretions. This screening allows in particular a first rapid triage of patients during the acute phase of COVID-19.

Imaging tests, molecular, antigen, and serological tests are complementary and may contribute to better identification of virus-infected patients, knowledge of their immune status, and therefore improved management of those patients and the epidemic.

DIAGNOSIS OF VIRAL INFECTION : 2 METHODS

Identification of virus-infected patients as early as possible, with or without clinical signs.

The incubation period for the coronavirus can vary but is usually 3 to 5 days and can extend to 14 days. During that period, the subject should be considered infectious: Thus, they can be carriers and spread the virus even before the onset of the symptoms. The presence of the viral antigen can therefore be detected whether the patient is asymptomatic or has clinical signs.
