The number of confirmed new COVID-19 cases is expected to continue rising as more businesses reopen. A rapid point-of-care confirmatory diagnostic test is essential to help safely re-enter society. The current gold-standard molecular diagnostic assay, quantitative reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR assay, although accurate, is labor intensive and time consuming. The time to results can range from 4 hours to several days. Thus, a major unmet need is a rapid, accurate, sensitive, and affordable COVID-19 confirmatory diagnostic test. Join our upcoming live webinar to learn how a team of inventors are attempting to develop a molecular COVID-19 diagnostic test that can not only be manufactured quickly but also generates results in less than 1 hour.
