RSV Rapid Test – Fast and Reliable Detection of Respiratory Syncytial Virus
What for
The RSV Rapid Test is a quick and reliable chromatographic immunoassay designed for the qualitative detection of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) in nasal and nasopharyngeal samples. It serves as an auxiliary tool in diagnosing RSV, one of the most common viruses affecting the respiratory system, especially in infants, the elderly, and individuals with underlying health conditions.
Features & Benefits of RSV Test:
✔ Reliable detection of RSV antigens during the acute phase of infection
✔ Results in just 15 minutes
✔ High sensitivity and specificity
✔ Suitable for nasal or nasopharyngeal samples
✔ Easy-to-use procedure, similar to standard rapid COVID-19 tests
✔ CE-certified
✔ Manufactured in Greece
How Does the RSV Rapid Test Work?
The test is based on an antigen-antibody reaction:
Specific RSV antibodies are immobilized in the test membrane’s detection zone.
If RSV antigens are present in the sample, they react with gold-conjugated RSV antibodies, forming a visible colored line in the detection zone.
A control line always appears, confirming the test’s validity.
What is RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus)?
RSV is a highly contagious virus that affects the lower respiratory system and is a leading cause of bronchiolitis and pneumonia in infants and young children. It spreads through droplets from coughing, sneezing, or speaking.
RSV Symptoms:
✔ Cough
✔ Low-grade fever
✔ Sore throat
✔ Runny nose
✔ Bronchiolitis & pneumonia (in severe cases)
RSV can be particularly dangerous for newborns, the elderly, and individuals with heart, respiratory, or immune conditions. Early detection using the RSV Rapid Test enables timely intervention and better management of the infection.
