Sponsor: BioFire Defense LLC
Conditions: Coronavirus, Respiratory Infection, COVID
Interventions: Investigational IVD for coronaviruses
Countries: United States
The Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) has contracted BioFire Defense (BFDf) to develop the BioFire Emerging Coronavirus (ECoV) Panel, a nucleic acid test capable of detecting coronaviruses from nasopharyngeal swab (NPS) in transport medium. This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the assays comprising the BioFire ECoV Panel. It is hypothesized that the BioFire ECoV Panel assays will be highly sensitive and specific for the detection of the coronaviruses included on the panel.
