How It Works
Surface samples are collected by swabbing the targeted surface. The swabs are then placed into collection tubes that contain lysis buffer, which inactivates the virus and prepares it for testing when it is received at our accredited lab. Each tube is labeled with surface name that was swabbed. We use CDC- and FDA-approved highly sensitive methods to detect as little as 20 COVID-19 viral particles with confidence. Results are usually available in 24-48 hours.
