The UK Government Public Health England, Porton Down Laboratory, which reviews all lateral flow tests for the DHSC/UK Government, has validated this test to have high accuracy at multiple viral loads, including for asymptomatic patients, and across the new different variants.
The Hughes swab only has to go 1-2cm into the nostril- all other nasopharyngeal tests need to go around 9cm deep into the nasal cavity.
The Hughes Healthcare Flowflex Rapid Antigen Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of specific antigens to SARS-CoV-2 present along the mucosa wall on the inside of the nostril.
The test is taken to:
- Diagnose infection
- Test following infection to see if the virus has been cleared
- Screen asymptomatic individuals to detect if they carry virus and are potentially infectious
