The IC Labs COVID-19 diagnostic antigen test uses a sample taken from a nasal swab to detect the nucleocapsid protein from SARS-CoV-2, commonly known as the corona virus. If this rapid diagnostic test is positive, it means that the person is CURRENTLY infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Once the infection is gone, the antigen disappears, and the test will be negative.
A positive test is considered very accurate, but it’s possible to be infected with the virus and have a negative antigen result. Testing less than five to six days after exposure to the corona virus is likely to produce a negative antigen result. No Covid-19 test is 100% accurate, so it’s important to follow Covid-19 guidelines provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, such as social distancing.
We utilize the Sofia SARS Antigen Fluorescent Immunoassay (FIA). This test uses advanced immunofluorescence-based lateral flow technology and has been authorized by the FDA under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for use by authorized laboratories.
The IC Labs COVID-19 test is not a molecular (PCR) diagnostic test. Although molecular tests, also known as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests, typically also use a nasal or throat swab to diagnose an active coronavirus infection, they detect the genetic information of the virus and may take up to one week to get results. It is also not at RT-PCR (reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction) test.
This test is not an antibody test. It does not reveal if you have already been exposed to an infection by detecting the presence of antibodies in a person’s blood or serum. Antibody testing is not typically used to diagnose a current infection as it takes the body some time to produce antibodies.
