| Content | Hello, LABtobacilli!
The 2019-nCov Antigen Test (Lateral Flow Method), an immunochromatographic assay that allows for rapid and qualitative identification of novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) antigen extracted from the nasopharyngeal swab or oropharyngeal swab specimen, is described in this laboratory technical procedure. The test is intended to assist in the diagnosis of 2019-nCoV-caused coronavirus infection illness (COVID-2019). An initial test result is provided by the test. A negative test does not rule out 2019 COVID-19 infection, nor should it serve as the exclusive foundation for treatment choices or other management decisions. |
