INTENDED USE
Celltrion DiaTrust”‘ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test is a rapid test based on lateral
flow immunoassay intended for the qualitative detection of nucleocapsid
proteins and receptor binding domains (RBDs) from the SARS-CoV-2 spike
proteins in human nasopharyngeal swab specimens directly collected from
individuals who are suspected of COVID-19 by their healthcare provider within
the first seven days of symptom onset, or from individuals without symptoms or
other epidemiological reasons to suspect COVID-19 when tested twice over two
or three days with at least 24 hours and no more than 48 hours between tests.
Testing is limited to laboratories certified under the Clinical Laboratory
Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), 42 U.S.C.1,263a, that meet the
requirements to perform high complexity, moderate complexity, or waived tests.
This test is authorized for use at the Point of Care (POC), i.e., in patient
care settings operating under a CLIA Certificate of Waiver, Certificate of
Compliance, or Certificate of Accreditation. The Celltrion DiaTrustu” COVID-19
Ag Rapid Test does not differentiate between SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2. Results
are for the identification of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid and RBD protein antigen.
Antigen is generally detectable in human nasopharyngeal swab specimens during
the acute phase of infection. Positive results indicate the presence of viral
antigens, but clinical correlation with the patient history and
otherdiagnostic information is necessary to determine infection status.
Positive results do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with
other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease.
Laboratories within the United States and its territories are required to
report all results to the appropriate public health authorities.
Negative results should be treated as presumptive and confirmation with a
molecular assay, if necessary, for patient management may be performed.
Negative results do not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection and should not be used
as the sole basis for treatment or patient management decisions, including
infection control decisions. Negative results should be considered in the
context of a patient’s recent exposures, history and the presence of clinical
signs and symptoms consistent with COVID-19.
For serial testing programs, additional confirmatory testing with a molecular
test for negative results may be necessary, if there is a high likelihood of
SARS-CoV-2 infection, such as in an individual with close contact with
COVID-19 or with suspected exposure to COVID-19 or in communities with high
prevalence of infection. Additional confirmatory testing with a molecular test
for positive results may also be necessary, if there is a low likelihood of
SARS-CoV-2 infection, such as in individuals without known exposures to SARS-
CoV-2 or residing in communities with low prevalence of infection. The
Celltrion DiaTrustTm COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test is intended for use by medical
professionals or trained operators who are proficient in performing tests,
trained clinical laboratory personnel, or individuals trained in POC settings.
In the United States, the Celltrion DiaTrustDACOVID-19 Ag Rapid Test is only
for use under the Food and Drug Administration’s Emergency Use Authorization.
MATERIAL PROVIDED
-
Test device (25 ea)
-
Test tube filled with extraction buffer and filter cap (25 ea)
-
NPS swab (25 ea)
-
Quick reference instruction (1 ea)
-
Positive control swab (1 ea)
-
Negative control swab (1 ea)
TESTING PROCEDURE
-
Prepare an aluminum pouch containing the test device and place it on the testing surface along with the test tube fined with the extraction buffer and filter cap. In case the tests were refrigerated, keep them ambient for 30 minutes to let it reach the room temperature.
-
Release the test device from the aluminum pouch and place it on a fiat surface just prior to starting test.
-
Collect the specimen by following CDC guidelines. After swabbing, immediately insert the swab into extraction buffer tube. Do not leave the sampled swab dry in open air as it may affect the test’s performance. If specimens are not tested before 4 hours when stored in extraction buffer, a new specimen should be collected and retested.
-
Collect the buffer fluid at the bottom of the test tube by shaking it and then peel off the seal of the test tube. Insert the tip of the swab with the patient specimen and move the swab up and down more than 10 times to ensure sufficient sample extraction.
-
Remove the swab while pressing against the sides of the tube to ensure maximum amount of liquid has been squeezed from the swab.
-
Equip the filter cap on the test tube and immediately dispense three drops of sample extracts (100 pL) into the sample well of the device. (Ifyou have dropped the test device after sample application, pleasediscard the device and restart the test using a new device.
-
Read results 15 minutes after applying the sample. Do not read results after 20 minutes.
RESULT INTERPRETATION
Read results 15 minutes after applying the sample. Do not read results after
20 minutes.
NEGATIVE
If no colored line appears in the test line (T) and a colored line is present
in the control region (C), then the result is negative.
POSITIVE
If colored line is visible in the test line (T) and control line (C), the
result is positive.
INVALID
If there is no colored line in the control region (C), the result is invalid.
If invalid results are obtained, please discard the device and re-do the
testing from the specimen collection using a new device.
Note: A negative result is presumptive and confirmation with a molecular
assay, if necessary, for patient management may be performed.
Note: For serial testing programs, additional confirmatory testing with a
molecular test for negative results may be necessary after second negative
result for asymptomatic patients, if there is a high likelihood of SARS-CoV-2
infection, such as in an individual with close contact with COVID-19 or with
suspected exposure to COVID-19 or in communities with high prevalence of
infection. Additional confirmatory testing with a molecular test for positive
results may also be necessary, if there is a low likelihood of SARS-CoV-2
infection, such as in individuals without known exposures to SARS-CoV-2 or
residing in communities with low prevalence of infection.
STORAGE AND STABILITY
An unopened test device should be stored at 2 – 30°C (36 – 86°F). The shelf- life of the test device is 12 months and it is stable until the expiration date marked on the label. An opened test device is stable up to 1 hour after released from the aluminum pouch.
EXTERNAL QUALITY CONTROL
It is recommended that positive and negative external control swabs are run once with every new lot, shipment, and each new user. External positive and negative control swabs are provided in the kit. The external control should be tested using the nasopharyngeal swab test procedure provided in the instructions for use or the quick reference instruction.
