Influenza Testing Solutions - Guidelines

Point of care respiratory tests are great for getting quick results, but by themselves they don’t meet CDC, WHO, FDA and HHS consensus guidelines for influenza testing.

The challenge has been meeting the guidelines for Influenza A/B testing and obtaining results within the 48-hour treatment window. Rapid cell culture can provide you with gold standard Influenza A/B results in 24 hours from receipt at the lab and gold standard results for all other relevant respiratory diseases in 48 hours.

  1. Gold Standard FDA-cleared Flu A/B results within 24 hours from receipt at the lab
  2. Gold Standard FDA-cleared rapid respiratory culture for all seven major respiratory viruses in 48 hours
  3. Meet the testing guidelines set by the FDA, CDC and WHO and allow treatment within the 48-hour treatment window
