CLINICAL RESULTS
Data were obtained using a total of 209 samples (103 positive samples and 106 healthy samples). Each sample was tested with both the test reagent and the gold standard reagent (RT-PCR kit). The clinical sensitivity, clinical specificity, and overall compliance rate of the test reagent are calculated based on the test results.
CROSS-REACTIVITY
It was tested for cross-reactivity with other diseases. All results were negative, indicating that infection with these diseases does not affect the specificity of the test.
*NOTE: Negative results do not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly in those who have been in recent contact with the virus. Follow-up testing with an accepted reference method (e.g., RT PCR) should be considered to rule out infection in these individuals. As with all diagnostic assays, the results obtained with this test must only be used as an adjunct to other information available to the healthcare professional. Treatment of patients should be based on a combination of symptoms, clinical signs, medical history, other laboratory tests and therapeutic responses.
