Good Afternoon,
Has anyone every used anything from AmerisourceBergen? My director received a fax from them regarding COVID-19 serology testing? Any information anyone might have would be appreciated.
Also is anyone performing serology testing for COVID-19? If so what product are you using? Any suggestions would be wonderful.
Thank You,
Kelly

Heather,
Only Cellex has received the FDA EUA; I have not found a vendor for it.
Biomedomics has not been reviewed by FDA but is permitted for distribution and use under public health emergency guidance.They are working with HEnry Schein as distributor.
Biosensor is also being made available under emergency guidance issued by FDA. Designated as high complex. It is distributed by Henry Schein
I am sure these tests will have some conflicting results. No one can guarantee immunity with these tests since there is so much we do not know about this virus. We do not know if you can get immunity or just like Flu, we have to be vaccinated for different strains, annually.
I attached copies of information I found about the tests.
Thanks Pet!
Does anyone have the Chembio for COVID testing or anymore information?
I contacted the company and was told I had to submit a request through email, which makes me believe they, like all other diagnostic companies, are extremely overwhelmed with the volume of requests, questions, and manufacturing.
I am located in Baltimore, does anyone have a mid-atlantic sales rep connection?
Thank you,

Is anyone using the Cellex test? If so are you seeing issues with the QC? We have been seeing, and have been told by the manufacturer, that you might not get a positive result for both the IgG and IgM but that would be OK.
We are not comfortable reporting patient results if the QC doesn't give a positive result for both.
Thank you,
