新的FDA授权的COVID-19测试无需实验室,只需5分钟即可产生结果

医疗保健技术制造商雅培(Abbott)推出了一项新的COVID-19测试

就产生结果而言,这似乎是最快的,并且可以在即时护理现场就地完成,而无需往返于实验室。

引起当前全球大流行的新型冠状病毒检测已获得美国食品药品监督管理局的紧急批准,

并将在下周开始生产,下周开始每天可生产50,000。

The new Abbott ID NOW COVID-19 test

uses the Abbott ID NOW diagnostics platform, which is essentially a lab-in-a-box that is roughly the size of a small kitchen appliance.

It’s size, and the fact that it can produce either

a positive result in just five minutes,

or a negative one in under 15, mean

that it could be a very useful means to extend coronavirus testing beyond its current availability to more places including clinics and doctor’s offices,

and cut down on wait times both in terms of getting tested and receiving a diagnosis.
