Abbott’s highly praised Abbott Test Kit
Negative diagnosis of 48% of positive results.
“Our products are accurate”
According to the AFP communication on 13 (local time), researchers from the Langon Medical Center of the University of New York reported that the test kit used by the White House incorrectly diagnosed positive cases in the document published on the thesis website of biotechnology ‘Bio Archive’ the same day. He said it reached almost half of the total. There is a possibility that the White House could worsen the situation by not detecting the confirmer prematurely using a non-compliance kit that makes a ‘false voice’ decision.
The test kit is a product of American Abbot that is diagnosed in just 5 minutes and negative in 13 minutes and is called an “ultra-fast diagnostic kit.” It was a product that President Trump unveiled when he opened the box during the Corona TF briefing at the White House on March 30. During the April 27 briefing, President Trump praised the makers of test kits Abbott and Roche and praised him, saying, “Abbott products can receive results in 5 minutes.”
The researchers compared the Abbott kit to the Cepheid kit, which takes more than 45 minutes to diagnose, and reported a false-negative response. In the case of a judgment made after transferring the collected test object to a solution, one third of the samples determined by the Cepheid Kit as positive were diagnosed negatively, and when the sample collected after drying the sample according to the Abbott’s recommended method was dried, 48% of the samples viewed positively as fading kits were viewed negatively as negative.
Meanwhile, the Roche product, which takes 3.5 hours, and the Cefeida product, which takes 45 minutes, showed similar reliability, the researchers said.
