These emergency tests kits are different than the normal testing kits since these can be used anywhere outside the hospital for Covid-19. Federal drug authority has also approved of these testing kits. These are mainly called as the molecular testing kits, as they are able to provide positive results in just 5 minutes and negative in around 13 minutes.

Abbot has designed a platform called Abbots ID, these testing kits are running on that platform, their weight is 6.6 pounds, and they are as smaller as a toaster, so you can use them anywhere you want and wherever and whenever you please. 5 million tests are now possible with the addition of these testing kits. 50,000 tests will be possible in a day in the United States now as the operations have been ramped by the authorities and as the number of cases has been increasing in Unites states, things are getting worse.

Molecular testing kits provide ultimate results to the health care providers, therefore they can swiftly take their decisions for their patients. this technology has been able to identify the virus through the identification of a small genome, then this genome has been amplified and replicated and until it has been detected. Now the testing time has been cut from hours to minutes, various other testing kits have also been designed by the abbot for the detection of Influenza A&B, Strep A and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).
