Description
Sofia®2 RSV Fluorescent Immunoassay (FIA)
For use with Sofia®2 and Sofia
The Sofia RSV FIA uses advanced immunofluorescence-based lateral-flow technology to detect respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) nucleoprotein antigen directly from nasopharyngeal swab and nasopharyngeal aspirate/wash specimens from symptomatic patients. The high sensitivity of the Sofia® RSV FIA offers confidence in rapid RSV testing.
Sofia® 2 with advance result technology (ART) delivers accurate, objective and automated results in as few as three minutes.
Contents: 1 Leased Sofia 2 Analyzer, 1 Install Kit, 3 RSV FIA Test Kits with 25 tests each (3 X 25 Test)
