In a study with 50 people without medical training who carried out the test themselves with the help of the instructions for use, the practicability was confirmed by laypeople. The test already has a CE mark for use by specialist groups for taking samples in the nose. The CLINITEST COVID-19 Antigen Self-Test offers users a high degree of flexibility in performing the test with very good quality results, said Christoph Pedain, Head of the Point of Care Diagnostics at Siemens Healthineers.
The COVID-19 Antigen Self-Test delivers results in 15 minutes. For this purpose, samples are taken from both nostrils using a swab. The swab is then washed out in a reagent, which detaches a specific protein from the surface of the virus. This liquid is dripped into a recess in the test cassette.
