Lateral flow tests (Rapid antigen testing)

Rapid antigen testing is a point-of-care nasal swab test that delivers an on the spot result when detecting the presence of live COVID-19 virus. It is carried out either on-site by a qualified healthcare professional, or remotely via video technology such as Zoom or Skype. One nurse can test around 10-15 people per hour. We supply the tests, the specialist trained staff to carry them out (either in person or remotely), and then if needed, an after-service to assist with any track and trace needs.

Rapid antigen testing

Our rapid antigen lateral flow test has comparable sensitivity and accuracy, with a few percentage points less sensitivity than the PCR test. A PCR test is 99.3% accurate and a lateral flow test is 97% accurate. Test accuracy is also heavily dependent on the test being conducted under the supervision of a qualified medical professional, be that in person or remotely.

However, the lower sensitivity level is mitigated by the fact that the nasal-swab test delivers results within 15 minutes. The PCR test can take up to 3 days to return once someone is able to get an appointment with the lab.
