The COVID-19 pandemic yielded important advances in testing for respiratory viruses, but it also exposed important unmet needs in screening to prevent the spread of infections in high-risk settings.

Over the past four years, many of us have become accustomed to a swab up the nose to test for COVID-19, using at-home rapid antigen tests or the more accurate clinic-provided PCR tests with a longer ...

Autonomous Medical Devices Incorporated (AMDI) today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted both ...

Because of its high accuracy, laboratory-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing is the gold standard for infectious disease diagnostics. However, PCR technology requires highly trained staff ...

These tests have very limited clinical use. The need for antibody testing would be to determine if a patient has recovered from COVID-19, and whether we could take a sample of the patient’s plasma to ...
