Rapid antigen testing - how it works
Antigen tests are diagnostic and some, like the BD Veritor™ Plus System, use immunoassays that detect the presence of a specific viral antigen indicative of an infection. These tests detect pathogens, such as influenza viruses, Group A Streptococcus bacteria and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Recently, Health Canada granted interim order authorization for some SARS‑CoV‑2 antigen tests, including the BD Veritor™ System for Rapid Detection of SARS‑CoV‑2*.
Rapid antigen tests can be used conveniently at the point-of-care**.
