TESTING
Influenza A/B & COVID-19 RT-PCR
This test, an RT-PCR assay, directly screens for the COVID-19 & Influenza A/B viruses in a patient’s RNA genetic sequence.
It offers the option to test for COVID-19 or a combination of COVID-19 and Influenza A/B. Your testing preference can be made upon activation of the kit.
By scaling molecular testing to test vast groups in a population, doctors can identify and initiate the appropriate therapeutic treatment early. Patients can immediately self-quarantine to minimize the spread of viral infections.
This test includes comprehensive advantages that ensure quality and accuracy including:
- Simultaneous detection and differentiation between Influenza A/B and SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19)
- RT-PCR is a nasopharyngeal swab, oropharyngeal swab, or saliva test
- This test requires high complexity laboratory instrumentation and must be ordered by a healthcare provider
- Molecular testing is considered the gold standard for testing & diagnosing active viral infections
- Medisure Lab’s molecular tests contains an internal positive control that can verify if the sample taken was sufficient
- Our multiplexed system streamlines testing to provide high throughput and expedited turn-around-time
Point of Care COVID-19 Antigen
Antigen tests detect proteins from the virus SARS-CoV-2.
This test includes comprehensive advantages that ensure quality and accuracy including:
- Quick and easy to use with results available in 20 minutes
- Does not require laboratory instrumentation
- This test can only be administered by a high complexity laboratory personnel
- This tests for active SARS-CoV-2 antigen infection by nasopharyngeal or nasal swab
