Abstract:
We assessed the ability of the BinaxNow rapid test to detect severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 antigen from 4 individuals with Omicron and Delta infections. We performed serial dilutions of nasal swab samples, and specimens with concentrations of ≥100 000 copies/swab were positive, demonstrating that the BinaxNow test is able to detect the Omicron variant.
摘要:
我们评估了BinaxNow快速测试从4名Omicron和Delta感染个体中检测严重急性呼吸道综合征冠状病毒2抗原的能力。我们对鼻拭子样本进行了连续稀释,浓度≥100.000份/拭子的标本呈阳性,证明BinaxNow测试能够检测到Omicron变体。
