What We Offer

• COVID Antigen testing – COVID antigen testing is performed as a Point of Care test as well as in our Core laboratories.  The COVID antigen test detects presence of COVID virus by the detection of COVID antibodies in the sample.  The sensitivity of this test is greater than 95%.  This is an excellent test to screen individuals with fast turnaround times.  Antigen testing specimens are obtained by Nasal or Nasal pharyngeal swab.  Depending on the setting this is obtained by facility staff or by a TridentCare collector.  “Self-collection” is also an option.

• COVID Antibody testing – The COVID antibody test, is a blood test that detects specific COVID antibodies.  This test is usually positive 5 – 14 days after exposure to the COVID virus or after illness caused by the COVID virus.  This test can remain positive for several months after exposure.  A positive antibody test may indicate immunity after acquiring COVID whether the individual had symptoms or not.   The COVID antibody test is performed on blood using standard blood collection techniques.  This specimen can be collected by a TridentCare Phlebotomist or by trained individuals in client facilities.

• COVID Antigen testing with reflex to PCR – If the COVID antigen test described above is positive or if it is negative in an individual with strong COVID symptoms, the same sample can be used to perform a confirmatory test.  This PCR test has increased sensitivity and eliminates interference from substances which may cause a false positive antigen test.   Antigen testing specimens are obtained by Nasal or Nasal pharyngeal swab.  If collected in Universal Transport Media, the same specimen can be used to verify the results of the antigen test.

• COVID PCR (or Molecular) testing – The most sensitive and specific test.  This test requires a sample to be collected and sent to one of our laboratories.  While the turnaround time is 24 – 48 hours, the COVID PCR test is the gold standard and give the more definitive result.  A nasal, nasopharyngeal or saliva specimen may be used.  The Nasal or nasopharyngeal appears to be the most reliable.  These specimens can be placed in Universal Transport Media or saline collection kits.
