BioCode® CoV-2 Flu Plus Assay

BioCode® CoV-2 Flu Plus Assay

Detect four critical respiratory pathogens in a single test.

The BioCode® CoV-2 Flu Plus Assay is a molecular assay based on reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) intended for the qualitative detection and differentiation of RNA from SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A, Influenza B, and/or Respiratory Syncytial Virus A/B (RSV) in nasopharyngeal swabs. 

Authorized for emergency use by the FDA*, the assay can be run as an independent assay or in parallel with our FDA-cleared BioCode® Respiratory Pathogen Panel (RPP) for a more complete respiratory infection profile of patients.
