Analytical Performance of the Point-of-care BIOSYNEX COVID-19 Ag BSS for the Detection of SARS‐CoV‐2 Nucleocapsid Protein in Nasopharyngeal Swabs: A Prospective Field Evaluation During the COVID-19 Third Wave in France

Abstract: Background: The accuracy and reliability of rapid diagnostic tests are critical for monitoring and diagnosing SARS-CoV-2 infection in the general population. This study aimed to evaluate the analytical performance of the BIOSYNEX COVID-19 Ag BSS (Biosynex Swiss SA, Fribourg, Switzerland) antigen rapid diagnostic test (Ag-RDT), which targets the SARS-CoV-2 N-nucleocapsid protein for the diagnosis of COVID-19. The Ag-RDT was compared with a real-time RT-PCR (rtRT-PCR) gold standard for performance measurement.Me… Show more
