Clinical Evaluation of SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19), Influenza and RSV 8-Well MT-PCR Panel for In Vitro Diagnostics

The SARS-CoV-2, Influenza and RSV PCR test is multiplex-tandem polymerase chain reaction (MT-PCR) based on qualitive in vitro diagnostic testing for the detection and identification of pathogens in nucleic acid extracts.

The BioFire Respiratory Panel 2.1 (RP2.1) is a PCR-based multiplexed nucleic acid test intended for use with the BioFire® FilmArray® 2.0 or BioFire® FilmArray® Torch Systems for the simultaneous qualitative detection and identification of multiple respiratory viral and bacterial nucleic acids in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) obtained from individuals suspected of respiratory tract infections.
