2San Lyher Covid-19 (SARS-CoV-2) Rapid Antigen Test (RATs) Nasal X 1

How does the Lyher Antigen Self-test Kit work?

The LYHER antigen test is a single-use, in vitro (outside the body) test to aid in the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection in individuals with symptoms of COVID-19. The test uses specimens collected from your nasal cavity using a nasal swab to detect the presence of the nucleocapsid protein SARS-CoV-2 antigen (Ag). An immunoassay technique is used to detect antigens of COVID-19. The sample pad is coated with colloidal gold-bound antibodies. The quality control area is coated with goat anti-mouse Immunoglobulin G (IgG), and test area with anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. If SARS-CoV-2 antigen is detected in specimen, the T line will become visibly coloured. The C line should always be coloured, or the test is not valid.
