The RT-PCR test is the gold standard for COVID-19 testing. RT-PCR uses genetic material from one of these samples, amplifies it, and then compares it to the genetic sequence of the virus you are trying to detect. At our labs we use the latest systems to handle each specimen with the greatest care. Rapid Antigen is great if you need fast results. Results are for the identification of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein antigen. Antigen is generally detectable in anterior nasal swabs during the acute phase of infection. Positive results indicate the presence of viral antigens.
