VitaPCR™ Flu A&B Assay

A Rapid and Accurate Diagnostic Test for Influenza A & B Detection at the Point-of-Care

Flu is a highly contagious virus that targets your respiratory system. Unfortunately, flu is often mistaken for cold due to similar symptoms, making it very difficult for patients to receive proper diagnosis and treatment in time.

As flu season approaches, rapid and accurate testing has become essential to provide a timely diagnosis and help doctors make precise medical decisions on the spot. Hence, the influenza antiviral treatment can be indicated to provide the most benefit for patients within the first 48 hours of symptoms onset. Besides, an early influenza diagnosis and treatment also prevents the spreading of the virus to others.
