How Does The Test Work?
The Assure Tech Rapid Antigen EcoTest detects the virus protein with the help of antibodies.
If the virus concentration is high enough, the antibody gets stuck in the area of the T-line, causing a colored line to appear. The result is positive.
If the sample does not contain any virus or if the concentration of the virus is too low, no T-line appears. The result is negative.
