We are aware that some counties have started to be more specific about their requirements for entry when using PCR or Antigen Lateral Flow Tests.
Specifically, countries have started to ask for tests which can detect Covid-19 infections where certain variants or the proteins, genes, genomic sequences or specific genomic deletions associated are present. This may include for example specifying a test which is capable of detecting Covid-19 infections with the N Protein or S Gene deletion as seen in the Omicron variant.
We would like to reassure customers that all of our lab based PCR Tests and Antigen Lateral Flow Tests are unaffected by these mutations and that the specificity and sensitivity is not affected by these changes to the virus.
As such you may continue to use our lab based PCR Tests and Antigen Lateral Flow Tests with the peace of mind that they are still able to detect Covid-19 infections even if one of the known mutations is present.
