Introduction

  • The Influenza A/B + SARS-CoV-2 Ag Combo Rapid Test Device is a professional infectious disease rapid test designed for qualitative detection of Influenza A antigen, Influenza B antigen, and SARS-CoV-2 antigen.
  • This rapid combo test is suitable for nasal swab and nasopharyngeal swab specimens.
  • The test supports rapid respiratory infection screening and helps healthcare professionals differentiate common viral respiratory infections.
  • Results should be interpreted with symptoms, clinical history, local outbreak activity, and additional laboratory testing when clinically required.

What Is Covid Ag Test

Influenza A, Influenza B, and SARS-CoV-2 are respiratory viruses that can produce similar symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, headache, fatigue, and respiratory discomfort. Combo testing helps healthcare professionals screen for multiple respiratory pathogens using a single specimen collection workflow.

Importance

  • Rapid respiratory infection testing supports early clinical decision-making and infection-control planning.
  • Influenza and COVID-19 symptoms may overlap, making differential screening important during seasonal outbreaks.
  • Combo testing can support workflow efficiency by screening for multiple pathogens in one test format.
  • Rapid detection may help guide isolation recommendations, patient triage, and follow-up testing strategies.

Intended Use

The Influenza A/B + SARS-CoV-2 Ag Combo Rapid Test Device by LARKSOIS Pharma may be used in professional respiratory infection screening environments.

Applications

  • Hospitals and clinics
  • Emergency departments
  • Diagnostic laboratories
  • Fever clinics
  • Respiratory infection screening programs
  • Public health outbreak response programs
  • Travel and workplace health screening
  • Professional point-of-care testing
  • International diagnostic distribution

How It Works

  • The Influenza A/B + SARS-CoV-2 Ag Combo Rapid Test Device works on lateral flow immunochromatographic assay technology.
  • After specimen collection, the nasal or nasopharyngeal swab is mixed with extraction buffer.
  • The prepared sample is applied to the test cassette.
  • If Influenza A antigen, Influenza B antigen, or SARS-CoV-2 antigen is present, the corresponding test line becomes visible.
  • The control line confirms valid sample migration and proper test performance.

Method

The Influenza A/B + SARS-CoV-2 Ag Combo Rapid Test Device uses rapid lateral flow immunochromatographic technology for qualitative detection of Influenza A antigen, Influenza B antigen, and SARS-CoV-2 antigen in nasal or nasopharyngeal swab specimens.

Benefits

  • Detects Influenza A antigen
  • Detects Influenza B antigen
  • Detects SARS-CoV-2 antigen
  • Rapid visual result
  • Uses nasal or nasopharyngeal swab specimens
  • No complex instrument required
  • Supports respiratory outbreak screening
  • Professional point-of-care diagnostic application

Specimen

The combo rapid test device supports nasal swab and nasopharyngeal swab specimens. Correct specimen collection is important because test performance depends on sample quality, viral load, timing after symptom onset, and correct procedure.

Guidance

  • Use approved nasal or nasopharyngeal swab specimens only
  • Collect specimens according to the product insert
  • Use clean and suitable swab collection materials
  • Avoid contaminated or improperly collected samples
  • Mix the swab specimen with extraction buffer correctly
  • Apply the prepared sample properly to the test cassette
  • Read results only within the recommended time window
  • Handle respiratory specimens according to laboratory safety procedures

Note

Specimen collection, extraction, testing, timing, and storage should always follow the official LARKSOIS Pharma kit insert.

Cut Off

The Influenza A/B + SARS-CoV-2 Ag Combo Rapid Test Device by LARKSOIS Pharma is designed for qualitative detection of Influenza A antigen, Influenza B antigen, and SARS-CoV-2 antigen in respiratory swab specimens. Results should be interpreted with symptoms, clinical evaluation, and local respiratory infection activity.

Clinical Importance

  • A positive result means one or more target antigens have been detected.
  • Rapid combo screening may support timely patient management and infection-control measures.
  • A negative result does not completely rule out respiratory infection.
  • If symptoms continue or clinical suspicion remains high, molecular testing such as PCR may still be recommended.

Limitations

Rapid antigen combo tests provide fast screening support, but molecular methods are generally more sensitive. The Influenza A/B + SARS-CoV-2 Ag Combo Rapid Test Device should be used as a professional screening aid and not as the only basis for diagnosis or treatment decisions.

Instructions

  • For professional in-vitro diagnostic use only
  • Use approved respiratory specimens only
  • Improper specimen collection may affect results
  • False negative or false positive results may occur
  • Negative results may require confirmation when symptoms strongly suggest infection
  • PCR testing may be recommended when clinical suspicion remains high
  • Read results only within the recommended time
  • Follow the official product insert carefully

Key Features

Instructions

Procedure

Steps

  • Bring the test device, specimen, and extraction buffer to room temperature
  • Collect the nasal or nasopharyngeal swab specimen according to instructions
  • Place the swab into the extraction buffer tube
  • Mix the sample properly as instructed in the product insert
  • Remove the test cassette from the sealed pouch

Result Interpretation

Positive

A positive result means Influenza A antigen, Influenza B antigen, and/or SARS-CoV-2 antigen has been detected. Results should be interpreted with symptoms, exposure history, and local outbreak activity.

Negative

A negative result means target antigens were not detected at the test’s detectable level. If symptoms continue or clinical suspicion remains high, molecular testing such as PCR may still be recommended.

Invalid

If the control line does not appear, the test result is invalid. Repeat testing with a fresh test device is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a combo flu and COVID rapid test?+

A combo flu and COVID rapid test is designed to detect Influenza A, Influenza B, and SARS-CoV-2 using a single respiratory specimen and test format.

Which type of test is most accurate for influenza and COVID-19?+

Molecular tests such as PCR are generally more accurate than rapid antigen tests. Rapid combo antigen tests are useful for fast professional screening.

What type of sample is used for combo rapid testing?+

Combo respiratory rapid tests commonly use nasal swab or nasopharyngeal swab specimens, depending on the product instructions.

When is the best time to perform a combo rapid test?+

Rapid antigen testing generally performs best during the early days of symptoms when viral antigen levels are higher.

Can a negative combo rapid test rule out infection?+

No. A negative rapid antigen result does not completely rule out infection. If symptoms continue or clinical suspicion remains high, molecular testing may still be recommended.
