The report and summaries from the evaluation of iaX-2101, a system for optical reading of lateral flow assays is now available under Evaluation results on the website. The optical reader is manufactured by Assaya Ltd and is intended for professional use. The evaluation was performed in one clinical microbiology laboratory and in two primary health care centres (PHCCs) from the Central Denmark Region. BLSs from the clinical laboratory did the practical work related to assessment of the agreement between iaX-2101 and visual interpretation or real-time-PCR, while the user friendliness was assessed by all evaluation sites.
The evaluation was performed on fresh or frozen nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal or nasal specimen. The iaX-2101 was launched in Scandinavia in 2022.
The report with summaries can be found under Evaluations.
