Abstract:Objective: The global pandemic of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is still spreading. Because of this, it is urgently necessary to develop quick, easy, and accurate assays to identify severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. For the purpose of diagnosing COVID-19 cases, the quick SARS-CoV-2 antigen detection test’s performance attributes should be assessed and contrasted with the gold standard real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay.
