A More Sensitive and Durable Rapid COVID-19 Test Using Nanoparticles - SciTechDaily

Rapid antigen tests can quickly and conveniently tell a person that they are positive for COVID-19. However, because antibody-based tests aren’t very sensitive, they can fail to detect early infections with low viral loads. Now, researchers reporting in ACS S…
