DEPARTMENT OF GENETICS
RAPID ANTIGEN TEST - COVID19 POSITIVE

Notes:

Sample : Nasopharyngeal swab .

Interpretations : Coronavirus is a single -stranded positive -sense RNA virus with an envelope of about 80 to 120 nm in diameter. Its genetic material is the
largest of all RNA viruses and is an important pathogen of many domestic animals, pets, and human diseases. It can cause a variety of acute and chronic
diseases . Common signs of a person infected with a Coronavirus include respiratory symtoms, fever,cough,shortness of breath, acute respiratory syndrome and
dyspnea.2019 new Corona virus ,or "SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19)", was discovered because of Wuhan Viral Pneumonia cases in 2019, and was named by the
world health organisation on January 12, 2020,confirming that it can cause colds and more serious diseases such as acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). This
test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of specific antigens to SARS-CoV-2 present in the human nasopharynx.It provides
only an initial screening test result . More specific alternative diagnosis methods should be performed in order to obtain the confirmation of SARS-CoV-2
infection like COVID 19 PCR.

Limitation of test:
1) The test should be used for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 antigen in human nasopharyngeal swab specimen.
2) Neither the quantitative value nor the rate of SARS-CoV-2 antigen concentration can be determined by this qualitative test.
3) A negative test result may occur if the level of extracted antigen in a specimen is below the sensitivity of the test .
4) For more accuracy , additional follow-up testing using COVID 19 RT PCR is recommended .
5) The test result must always be evaluated with other data available to the physician.
6) A negative result may occur if the concentration of antigen in a specimen is below the detection limit of the test., therefore a negative test result does not
eliminate the possibility of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and should be confirmed by COVID 19 RT PCR.
7) Positive test result do not rule out co- infections with other pathogens .
8) Negative test results are not intended to rule other Coronavirus infection except the SARS-CoV-1.
9) Children tend to shed virus for longer periods of time than adults , this result in differences in sensitivity between adults and children.
