Immunochemistry testing contributes to fighting the COVID-19 pandemic
Immunochemistry, the medical discipline that studies the immune system’s chemistry, plays an important role in the testing strategy to control this COVID-19 pandemic. Mass testing has become essential across most countries. Besides large testing capacities, results are needed fast, and they must be reliable. While molecular tests are accurate, they require highly skilled personnel throughout the testing process, sophisticated laboratory facilities and a longer time to deliver results. On the other hand, rapid tests have a lower reliability and do not achieve the large capacities required. A high-throughput SARS-CoV-2 antigen laboratory test that yields accurate and reliable results in a very short time would be the solution for laboratories to cope with the challenging workload.
