The answer to your respiratory testing needs
The symptoms of flu, COVID-19 and other respiratory infections are all very similar, making them difficult to diagnose. Sensitive multiplex PCR panel testing is a fast and simple way to accurately diagnose your patients when multiple respiratory pathogens are circulating. In fact, the CDC and the Academy of Medical Sciences “strongly support multiplex testing” in this situation (2, 3).
With the QIAstat-Dx Respiratory SARS-CoV-2 Panel, you don’t just get results for 23 respiratory pathogens in about an hour. You also get access to Ct values and amplification curves, powerful connectivity features and on-demand epidemiology reports.
