Antigenic lay test for COVID-19

Hotgen’s Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) antigen test is an in vitro immunochromatographic test for the determination of coronavirus antigen using a nasal swab.

How to handle the test result

Please follow the instructions for handling your test result!

• POSITIVE: COVID-19 infection is currently suspected. Please contact your doctor/family physician or local health department immediately. Please comply with local guidelines for self-isolation and have a PCR confirmation test performed.
• NEGATIVE: Please continue to comply with all applicable rules regarding contact with others as well as applicable protective measures – even if the test is negative, an infection may be present! In case of suspicion, repeat the test after 1-2 days, as the coronavirus cannot be detected accurately in all phases of an infection.
