Monday, March 8, 2021

Some of these variants are more infectious, and therefore more rapidly transmissible, and have the potential to become dominant strains.

Key Points: 
  • Some of these variants are more infectious, and therefore more rapidly transmissible, and have the potential to become dominant strains.
  • Avacta has carried out analytical tests with the spike proteins isolated from both the B117 and D614G variants, and has confirmed that its AffiDX SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen lateral flow test detects both of these variants as well as the original strain.
  • We will continue to monitor the performance of the Affimer reagents with future dominant variants as they become available to us.
  • Disclaimer: AffiDX SARS-CoV-2 Lateral Flow Rapid Antigen Test not currently for sale in the United States.
