Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to verify the sensibility and accuracy of a rapid detection test for SARS-CoV-2 in breath samples analyzed by the breath detector analyzer TeraSystem, comparing with PCR tests.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: Breath sample

Detailed Description

BioSafety Technologies has developed a rapid detection test to clear people of COVID-19.

A person can undergo an easy non-invasive test, to determine if they are: COVID-19 Clear (Negative) or Infected (Positive). The user-friendly process does not involve medically trained personnel.

The study will compare TeraSystem test results against PCR test results. Persons participating will be persons having a PCR test as part of the Health System and consenting to participate.
