NOW FDA EMERGENCY USE AUTHORIZED

The CareStart™ COVID-19 MDx RT-PCR is a real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test intended for the qualitative detection of nucleic acid from SARS-CoV-2 in respiratory specimens (such as nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal and nasal swabs, and nasopharyngeal wash/aspirate or nasal aspirate) and bronchoalveolar lavage from individuals suspected of COVID-19 by their healthcare provider.

Testing is limited to laboratories certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), 42 U.S.C. §263a, that meet requirements to perform high complexity tests.

  • For use under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) only
  • For in vitro diagnostic use only
  • Rx Use only
  • For the qualitative detection of human coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA extracted from respiratory tract specimens
  • Administered via nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal and nasal swabs and nasopharyngeal wash/aspirate or nasal aspirate, and bronchoalveolar lavage
  • Processing time is less than 83 minutes

Available for use with the following lab systems:

  • CFX96 Touch™ system (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.)
