| | Product Description | |
| The Directigen™ EZ Flu A+B test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the direct and qualitative detection of influenza A and B viral antigens from nasopharyngeal washes/aspirates and throat swabs of symptomatic patients. The Directigen™ EZ Flu A+B test is a differentiated test, such that influenza A viral antigens can be distinguished from influenza B viral antigens from a single processed sample using a single device. The test is to be used as an aid in the diagnosis of influenza A and B viral infections. All negative test results should be confirmed by cell culture. | |
