Determination of Coronavirus (SARS-Cov-2) antigen | Home service

General Information

The Sars-Cov-2 antigen test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay that qualitatively determines the presence of new Coronavirus antigen in a nasopharyngeal smear sample.

The test is used to detect the presence of the virus in the body at an early stage (from the first day of symptoms) and in the acute period of infection to detect the antigen. Is an analogue of the PCR test. It has a number of advantages:

• The test is characterized by high accuracy - 97,5%
• No additional equipment is required to detect the virus.
• Time to complete one test and get the answer - 15-30 minutes.
• Ease of use, it is possible to perform the test at home.
• Get test results quickly in the early stages of the disease (as soon as the first symptoms appear).
• Ability to make decision about isolation quickly..

When should we take the test?

It is recommended to have an antigen test within 6 days of the onset of symptoms and an antibody test from the 7th day.

The test is designed for:

• For clinics: Through the test, medical staff can identify the person "carrier" of the virus in 15 minutes and decide whether to isolate the "carrier" of the virus or hospitalize the patient in a special ward.
• For laboratories: The test allows laboratories to detect the virus at an early stage (from the first day of symptoms) and in the acute phase of infection, through massive testing and leaving the home. Is an analogue of the PCR test.
• For employers: The test allows to identify infected employees at an early stage.
