The COVID-19-Check-1 Antigen is a rapid immunodiagnostic test designed to detect the nucleocapsid protein of SARS-CoV-2 from a nasal swab sample. It boasts high diagnostic specificity (100%) and sensitivity (> 98%). The test can be administered by someone without symptoms or by individuals experiencing symptoms for less than 7 days. It consists of a plastic case containing a single strip with two separate zones for virus antigen detection (T) and control (C). The sample material is nasal secretions, collected using a special swab included in the kit. Test results can be read in as little as 20 minutes. The COVID-19-Check-1 Antigen test is also suitable for use in children. This diagnostic test for detecting the SARS-CoV-2 virus is a LabHome medical device intended for self-testing. The antigen test is one of the methods used in the diagnosis of coronavirus, allowing for the rapid detection of the SARS-CoV-2 antigen in nasal swab samples. A positive result indicates that the test has detected the virus antigen, and you should consult a doctor to review the test result. The doctor will then decide if further diagnostic testing is necessary. The presence of the virus does not necessarily mean you will develop a severe form of the illness, but it is important to take precautions to prevent spreading the virus to others. Only a physician can make a diagnosis based on a medical examination and additional test results.
