FDA EUA ISSUED COVID-19 RAPID TEST KITS
Our Covid-19 IgG/IgM test has been validated by the US Government
Available in the United States and US Territories (non US orders click here), this test is used to qualitatively detect IgG and IgM antibodies of coronavirus in human serum, human plasma, venous whole blood or fingerstick blood. This device is FDA EUA issued to be used by Point of Care providers for use as an aid in identifying individuals with an adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2, indicating recent or prior infection.
UNDERSTANDING RAPID ANTIBODY TESTING
Please note that specifically to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19, interpretation of the test as intended to indicate protective immunity is not an authorized intended use. When used at the POC, this test is only authorized to detect and differentiate IgM and IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in human fingerstick whole blood specimens. At this time, it is unknown for how long antibodies persist following infection and if the presence of antibodies confers protective immunity. Even if an individual tests positive for IgG, that individual should still follow CDC guidelines of physical distancing requirements and other preventative measures such as wearing masks.
ACCURATE AND AFFORDABLE

​
What happens when the result is invalid?
​
You will need to retest on a new test cassette if the Control Line doesn't turn from solid blue to solid red at the top of the Cassette, next to the "C". The most common reason for this is using too little buffer solution or other procedures not followed properly.
​
​
Why are there three types of positive results?
​
Our test represents two different antibodies that the body creates in response to a Covid-19 infection. There are three positive results because one could be positive for IgM, IgG, or both IgM and IgG.
​
M: Is the IgM (immunoglobulin M) is the largest antibody and is the first antibody to appear in response to initial exposure to an antigen. The IgM line in these tests are specifically designed to identify IgM antibodies in response to SARS-CoV-2, the virus associated with Covid-19.
​
G: Is the IgG (immunoglobulin G) is a type of antibody. Representing approximately 75% of serum antibodies in humans, IgG is the most common type of antibody found in blood circulation [1]. IgG molecules are created and released by plasma B cells. Each IgG has two antigen-binding sites. The IgG line in these tests are designed to identify IgG antibodies in response to SARS-CoV-2, the virus associated with Covid-19.
