Description
Sofia®2 Influenza A&B Fluorescent Immunoassay (FIA)
For use with Sofia®2 and Sofia
The Sofia®2 FIA uses advanced immunofluorescence-based lateral-flow technology to detect Influenza A&B nucleoprotein antigen directly from nasopharyngeal swab and nasopharyngeal aspirate/wash specimens from symptomatic patients. The high sensitivity of the Sofia®2 FIA offers confidence in rapid Influenza testing
Sofia®2 FIA 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, 1 Influenza A&B FIA Test Kit (25 Test)
