While PCR testing is currently the gold standard of accuracy for virology testing, the method falls short in several ways. PCR tests are highly complex and require chemical reactions that must be ...

Over the past four years, many of us have become accustomed to a swab up the nose to test for COVID-19, using at-home rapid antigen tests or the more accurate clinic-provided PCR tests with a longer ...

Roche’s cobas BV/CV assay gains CE Mark, enabling accurate, rapid diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis and candida vaginitis.

A new diagnostic tool developed by researchers can test for SARS-CoV-2 and Zika virus with the same or better accuracy as high-precision PCR tests in a matter of hours. Over the past four years, many ...
