Feb2021 - New Study Identifies Top-Performing Point-of-Care COVID-19 Tests

_{https://www.nsf.org/news/new-study-identifies-top-performing-point-care-covid-19-tests}

After screening more than 1,100 independently assessed, point-of-care COVID-19 tests, researchers at NSF International and Novateur Ventures have identified 5 direct (antigen/RNA) tests for detection of acute infection and 6 indirect (antibody) tests for detection of prior infection that meet the recently published World Health Organization (WHO) “desirable” Target Product Profile (TPP) criteria.

The researchers hope their work will help communities and healthcare systems make more informed decisions when choosing rapid, point-of-care COVID-19 tests. TPPs outline the desired characteristics of a product aimed at a specific disease. The WHO TPPs can be used to compare key features of COVID‐19 tests and select products that best respond to the public health needs of each region

Direct (Antigen/RNA) POC Tests:

• DetectaChem MobileDetect Bio BCC19 Test (RT-LAMP)
• Mammoth Biosciences SARS-CoV-2 Detectr Test (RT-LAMP/CRISPR)
• Quidel Sofia-2 Flu+SARS Antigen Test
• Seasun Biomaterials AQ?TOP Plus COVID-19 Rapid Test (RT-LAMP)
• Shenzhen Bioeasy Biotechnology Bioeasy Diagnostic Kit COVID-19 Antigen Test

Indirect (Antibody) POC Tests:

• Guangzhou Wondfo Biotech Wondfo SARS-CoV-2 Ab Test 1
• Hangzhou Biotest Biotech RightSign COVID-19 IgG/IgM Rapid Test
• Hangzhou AllTest Biotech AllTest COVID-19 IgG/IgM Rapid Test 1
• NG Biotech NG IgG/IgM Rapid Test
• Sugentech SGTi-flex COVID-19 IgG
• VivaChek Biotech COVID-19 IgM/IgG Rapid Test
