TEST UTILIZED: BinaxNOWTM LOT#: 173022

Intention of use: For the qualitative detection of nucleocapsid antigen from SARS_CoV-2 in direct nasal swabs.
Limitations of use

1) This test detects both viable (live) and non-viable SARS-Cov_2. The test performance depends on the amount of
virus in the sample

2) A negative test result may occur if the level of antigen in a sample is below the detection limit of the test.
All results should be considered in conjunction with other available clinical information.

3) False negative results may occur if specimens are tested past 1 hour of collection. Specimens should be tested
as quickly as possible after specimen collection.

4) Negative results, from patients with symptoms onset beyond seven days. Should be treated as presumptive and
conformation with a molecular assay, if necessary, for patient management, may be performed.

5) Positive test results do not rule out co-infections with other pathogens

6) The presence of mupirocin may interfere with the Binax NOW COVID-19 Ag test and may cause false negative
test results.

**Procedural control**

Negative- The clearing of the background color from the results window is a negative background control.
The background color in the window should be light pink to white within 15 minutes. Background color should not
hinder reading of the test.
