The Importance of Rapid Test Kits Market in Healthcare

Amayrashah1520 Sep, 2023Technology

Rapid tests, also known as rapid diagnostic tests or RDTs, are easy-to-use tests that yield results in 20 minutes or less. A rapid antigen test detects the presence of specific proteins on the virus's surface, whereas a rapid antibody test measures the expression of antibodies that may indicate prior pathogen exposure. Many diseases now have point-of-care (POC) tests that are inexpensive, simple to use, reliable, and widely used. Infectious disease testing accounts for approximately 37% of the POC market. The scope of this report (in infections) is limited to respiratory and sexually transmitted infections, and its scope (in testing) is limited to rapid antigen-antibody tests.
