We assessed the ability of the BinaxNow rapid test to detect severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 antigen from 4 individuals with Omicron and Delta infections. We performed serial dilutions of nasal swab samples, and specimens with concentrations of ≥100000 copies/swab were positive, demonstrating that the BinaxNow test is able to detect the Omicron variant.
我们评估了BinaxNow快速检测法从4名感染奥密克戎和德尔塔毒株的个体中检测严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2抗原的能力。我们对鼻拭子样本进行了系列稀释,浓度≥100000拷贝/拭子的标本呈阳性,这表明BinaxNow检测法能够检测出奥密克戎变异株。
