LumiQuick Diagnostics, Inc. (Santa Clara, CA, USA) highlighted its newly-launched point-of-care lateral flow assays and ELISA kits at the 2021 AACC Annual Scientific Meeting & Clinical Lab Expo.

The event provided an opportunity to connect with global leaders in laboratory medicine, and to discover cutting edge technology and vital research in the field. LumiQuick develops and manufactures extensive product lines that cover point-of-care lateral flow assays, ELISA kits, and other platforms. At AACC 2021, the company highlighted some of its newly-launched products such as the QuickProfile Quantitative Vitamin D rapid test, QuickProfile Zika IgG/IgM antibody rapid test, QuickProfile Chikungunya IgG/IgM antibody rapid test, and Quicknostics Vitamin D ELISA test.

LumiQuick also demonstrated its COVID-19 testing solutions including the QuickProfile 2019-nCoV IgG/IgM Combo Test Card which is an immunochromatography based one step in vitro test. It is designed for the rapid qualitative determination of IgG and IgM antibodies to 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV, SARS-CoV-2) in human serum, plasma, or whole blood. Rapid 2019-nCoV IgG/IgM Combo Test Card is a supplemental rapid screening tool for symptomatic or asymptomatic carriers of the virus. Also on display was the company’s QuickProfile COVID-19 Antigen Test which is a rapid in vitro immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 virus antigen present in human nasopharynx.
