Immunochromatographic tests, or rapid tests, are qualitative tests that allow the detection of certain components (antigen, antibodies, subunits, etc.) quickly and usually through a visual reading.

These tests are widely used in clinical laboratories in our country, as they represent a fast and safe diagnostic tool, without the investment of equipment to obtain the result.

Abbott Point of Care is one of the international leaders in the manufacture and marketing of these products. Its main focus has been on those infectious diseases with a high global impact such as the human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis and syphilis, followed by a focus on those respiratory tract infections whose winter peaks, such as influenza, respiratory syncytial virus and Covid-19, greatly complicate healthcare centers.

Microbac, as a distributor of Abbott Point of Care, makes available to our clients the entire range of products aimed at this objective, the rapid and accurate diagnosis of high-impact infectious diseases.
