What is influenza A & B
The two most common types of influenza are influenza A & B. Influenza (commonly known as the ‘flu’) is a highly contagious, acute viral infection of the respiratory tract. The disease is easily transmitted through coughing and sneezing from aerosolized droplets containing the live virus. The Rapid Response® Influenza A+B Test Cassette offers fast and accurate influenza diagnosis providing results in under 10 minutes.
About the Flu test
The Rapid Response® Influenza A+B Test Cassette is an immunoassay that detects for the presence of Influenza A and Influenza B nucleoprotein antigens in respiratory specimens. This test can quickly differentiate between Flu AB viral infections from patients with Influenza symptoms. If the test is positive for either Influenza A (Flu A) OR Influenza B (Flu B), the tested individual has the flu.
