available. The most widely used tests are rapid lateral flow assays that generate results in …

Self-testing is an effective tool to bridge the testing gap for several infectious diseases;
however, its performance in detecting SARS-CoV-2 using antigen-detection rapid diagnostic …

Immunoassays designed to detect SARS-CoV-2 protein antigens (Ag) are commonly used to
diagnose COVID-19. The most widely used tests are lateral flow assays that generate results …

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) initiated global health care challenges such as the
necessity for new diagnostic tests. Diagnosis by real-time PCR remains the gold-standard …

Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients have distinct clinical features in the
pediatric groups. However, there is a paucity of research focused on clinical manifestation …

This research uses mathematically derived visual logistics to interpret COVID-19 molecular
and rapid antigen test (RAgT) performance, determine prevalence boundaries where risk …

We aimed to assess the performance of Ag‐RDT and RT‐qPCR with regard to detecting
infectious SARS‐CoV‐2 in cell cultures, as their diagnostic test accuracy (DTA) compared to …

Background Before the COVID-19 pandemic, RADTs for respiratory viruses were historically
associated with suboptimal test performance. This was dramatically illustrated during the …

Objective: The objective of this review was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of the
currently available and upcoming point-of-care rapid antigen tests (RATs) used in primary …

During the Covid-19 pandemic, accurate PCR tests were augmented by the cheap, rapid,
and logistically convenient, yet less sensitive antigen tests. In Israel, a testing policy shift was …
