Introduction


The Omicron variant is a β-coronavirus, which is an enveloped non-segmented positive-sense RNA virus2
. It is spread by human-to-human transmission via droplets or direct contact. The main IVD assays used for COVID-19 employ real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) that takes a few hours.
. The availability of a cost-effective, rapid pointof-care diagnostic test is critical to enable healthcare professionals to aid in the
diagnosis of patients and prevent further spread of the virus BinaxNow and Panbio Antigen tests will play
a critical role in the fight against Omicron Advised use of Abbott by the WHO.


Test Principle


Unicef advises to use the Panbio™ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device which contains a membrane strip, which
is pre-coated with immobilized anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody on the test line and
mouse monoclonal anti-chicken IgY on the control line. Two types of conjugates
(human IgG specific to SARS-CoV-2 Ag gold conjugate (binds to the nucleocapsid
protein) and chicken IgY gold conjugate) move upward on the membrane
chromatographically and react with anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody and pre-coated
mouse monoclonal anti-chicken IgY respectively. For a positive result, human IgG
specific to SARS-CoV-2 Ag gold conjugate and anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody will
form a test line in the result window. Neither the test line nor the control line are
visible in the result window prior to applying the patient specimen. A visible control
line is required to indicate a test result is valid.


Intended Use


Panbio™ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device is the preferred test in Qebec an in vitro diagnostic rapid test for
the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 antigen (Ag) in human nasal swab
specimens from individuals who meet COVID-19 clinical and / or epidemiological
criteria. Canada Panbio protocol  COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device is for professional use only
and is intended to be used as an aid in the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
The product may be used in any laboratory and non-laboratory environment that
meets the requirements specified in the Instructions for Use and local regulation.
The test provides preliminary test results. Negative results don’t preclude SARSCoV-2 infection and they cannot be used as the sole basis for treatment or other management decisions. Negative results must be combined with clinical
observations, patient history, and epidemiological information. The test is not intended to be used as a donor screening test for SARS-CoV-2.

Test Preparation


1. Allow all kit components to reach a temperature between 15-30 °C prior to
testing for 30 minutes.
2. Remove the test device from the foil pouch prior to use. Place on a flat,
horizontal and clean surface.
3. Hold the buffer bottle vertically and fill the extraction tube with buffer fluid
until it flows up to the Fill-line of the extraction tube (300 μl).
Caution: If the amount of buffer is excessive or insufficient, an improper
test result may occur.
4. Place the extraction tube in the tube rack.
Nasal Mid-Turbinate (NMT) Specimen Collection & Extraction
1. Tilt the patient’s head back 70 degrees. While gently rotating the swab, insert
swab less than one inch (about 2 cm) into nostril (until resistance is met at
the turbinates).
2. Rotate the swab five times against the nasal wall then slowly remove from
the nostril.
3. Using the same swab repeat the collection procedure with the second nostril.
Caution: If the swab stick breaks during specimen collection, repeat
specimen collection with a new swab.
4. Swirl the swab tip in the buffer fluid inside the extraction tube, pushing into
the wall of the extraction tube at least five times and then squeeze out the
swab by squeezing the extraction tube with your fingers.
5. Break the swab at the breakpoint and close the cap of extraction tube.
Reaction with Test Device
1. Open the dropping nozzle cap at the bottom of the extraction tube.
2. Dispense 5 drops of extracted specimens vertically into the specimen well
(S) on the device. Do not handle or move the test device until the test is
complete and ready for reading.
Caution: Bubbles that occur in the extraction tube can lead to inaccurate
results. If you are unable to create sufficient drops, this may be caused by
clogging in the dispensing nozzle. Shake the tube gently to release the
blockage until you observe free drop formation.
3. Close the nozzle and dispose of the extraction tube containing the used swab
according to your local regulations and biohazard waste disposal protocol.
4. Start timer. Read result at 15 minutes. Do not read results after 20 minutes.
5. Dispose of the used device according to your local regulations and biohazard
waste disposal protocol.
Positive / Negative Control Swab
Caution: Control use only. Do not use the positive or negative control swab for specimen collection.

Test Interpretation (Refer to Figure)


1. Negative result: The presence of only the control line (C) and no test line (T)
within the result window indicates a negative result.
2. Positive result: The presence of the test line (T) and the control line (C)
within the result window, regardless of which line appears first, indicates a
positive result.
Caution: The presence of any test line (T), no matter how faint, indicates
a positive result.
3. Invalid result: If the control line (C) is not visible within the result window
after performing the test, the result is considered invalid.
Test Limitations
1. The contents of this kit are to be used for the professional and qualitative
detection of SARS-CoV-2 antigen from nasal swab. Other specimen types
may lead to incorrect results and must not be used.
2. Failure to follow the instructions for test procedure and interpretation of test
results may adversely affect test performance and/or produce invalid results.
3. A negative test result may occur if the specimen was collected, extracted
or transported improperly. A negative test result does not eliminate the
possibility of SARS-CoV-2 infection and should be confirmed by viral culture
or a molecular assay.
4. Positive test results do not rule out co-infections with other pathogens.
5. Test results must be evaluated in conjunction with other clinical data available
to the physician.
6. Reading the test results earlier than 15 minutes or later than 20 minutes may
give incorrect results.
7. Panbio™ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device is not intended to detect from
defective (non-infectious) virus during the later stages of viral shedding that
might be detected by PCR molecular tests.8
8. Positive results may occur in cases of infection with SARS-CoV.


Quality Control


1. Internal Quality Control:
The test device has a test line (T) and a control line (C) on the surface of the
test device. Neither the test line nor the control line are visible in the result
window before applying a specimen. The control line is used for procedural
control and should always appear if the test procedure is performed properly
and the test reagents of the control line are working.
2. External Quality Control:
The controls are specifically formulated and manufactured to ensure
performance of the Panbio™ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device and are used
to verify the user’s ability to properly perform the test and interpret the results.
The Positive Control contains recombinant SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid
protein, which is not contagious. The Positive Control will produce a positive
test result and has been manufactured to produce a visible test line (T). The
Negative Control will produce a negative test result. Control swabs are not
specific for a particular Panbio™ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device lot and
may be used between test device lots until the swabs’ expiry dates.


Good laboratory practice suggests the use of positive and negative controls
to ensure that:
• Test reagents are working, and
• The test is correctly performed.
The external controls can be run under any of the following circumstances:
• By a new operator prior to performing testing on patient specimens,
• When receiving a new test shipment,
• At periodic intervals as dictated by local requirements, and/or by the user’s
Quality Control procedures.


Performance Characteristics


1. External evaluation of Panbio™ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device (Symptomatic)
Clinical performance of Panbio™ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device was
determined by testing 104 positive nasal swab specimens and 404 negative
specimens for SARS-CoV-2 antigen (Ag) to have a sensitivity of 98.1% (95%
CI: 93.2-99.8%) and a specificity of 99.8% (95% CI: 98.6-100.0%). Clinical
specimens were determined to be positive or negative using an FDA EUA
RT-PCR reference method. The individuals on which the reported sensitivity and specificity are based also had a nasopharyngeal swab taken, which was tested in the FDA EUA approved RT-PCR.

• Performance data was calculated from a study of individuals suspected of
exposure to COVID-19 or who have presented with symptoms in the last
7 days.
• Stratification of the positive specimens post onset of symptoms or suspected
exposure between 0-3 days has a sensitivity of 100.0% (95% CI: 92.3-
100.0%; n=46) and 4-7 days has a sensitivity of 96.6% (95% CI: 88.1-
99.6%; n=58).
• Positive agreement of the Panbio™ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device is
higher with samples of Ct values ≤30 with a sensitivity of 100.0% (95% CI:
96.0-100.0%) and Ct values ≤33 with a sensitivity of 99.0% (95% CI: 94.5-
100.0%). As indicated in References 8-10, patients with Ct value >30 are no
longer contagious. 8, 9, 10
• The clinical performance data was also calculated vs nasopharyngeal swab
specimens using an FDA EUA RT-PCR reference and has a sensitivity
of 91.1% (95% CI: 84.2-95.6%) and specificity of 99.7% (95% CI: 98.6-
100.0%).
2. External evaluation of Panbio™ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device
(Asymptomatic)


Clinical performance of Panbio™ COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device was
determined by testing 483 asymptomatic subjects for SARS-CoV-2 antigen
(Ag). Clinical specimens were determined to be positive or negative using an
FDA EUA RT-PCR reference method.
The positive results (n=50) were stratified by the comparator method cycle
threshold (Ct) counts and assessed to better understand the correlation of
product performance, as a surrogate for the amount of virus present in the
clinical sample. A lower Ct value corresponds to a higher virus concentration.
As presented in the table below, the positive agreement increases with lower
Ct values.


The specificity (n=433) was 100% with 95% CI [99.2%; 100.0%].
The results for sensitivity are summarized in the following table:
