New sampling set GARGTEST

AUMED, a.s. collaborated on the development of a new self-sampling set based on the principle of gargling of the oral cavity and pharynx. The new sampling set was named GARGTEST and was developed in cooperation with the Institute of Molecular and Translational. The samples are evaluated in the laboratory by common methods based on nucleic acid amplification (PCR, LAMP, etc.). for the presence of viruses infecting the oral cavity and upper respiratory tract using commonly available nucleic acid isolation and detection methods based on nucleic acid amplification.

The new collection is therefore much more pleasant and completely painless. Instead of pushing the sticks into the nose, it is enough to gargle a sip of ordinary water for 20-30 seconds and then empty this content from the mouth into the enclosed collection container containing the transport powder. The user then closes the container and packs it according to the instructions. He will perform this procedure either at the sampling point or at home, from where he will then deliver the sample to the sampling point, to the laboratory or, for example, to his doctor.

The combination of the new sampling kit and the AUMED test RT-LAMP Assay SARS-CoV-2 test kit creates completely new possibilities for the detection of new coronavirus in the population. Painless and fast collection without queues will be followed by fast and reliable diagnostics!

AUMED a.s. ensures the production of the sampling set. If you are interested, contact us by email info@aumed.cz and we will contact you immediately with a price offer depending on the number of required sets.
