PCR tests remain to be the “Gold Standard” for COVID-19 testing. While PCR on nasal swabs is the current standard for SARS-CoV-2 detection, PCR can also be detected using Saliva. COVID-19 testing with saliva can be a more advantageous alternative for routine and regular screening due to ease of collection,
BioExcel DiagnosticsWhere Innovation and Precision Excel
BioExcel Diagnostics is a licensed clinical laboratory that employs state-of-the-art technologies, innovative techniques, and validated processes for the most advanced molecular diagnostic and clinical genetic testing.
COVID-19 Testing
As a response to this pandemic and to promote widespread testing BioExcel Diagnostics is offering the COVID-19 RT-PCR test at a reduced price. We believe the RT-PCR test should be affordable and easily accessible. BioExcel Diagnostics is dedicated to the safety of our community.
We’ve launched two diagnostic reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assays for COVID-19.
• Conventional COVID-19 RT-PCR (Nasal)
• Yale SalivaDirectTM
PCR testing is the confirmatory testing option authorized by the FDA to detect and track the spread of COVID-19.
BioExcel Diagnostics has been authorized to offer the SalivaDirect™ COVID-19 diagnostic test, developed by the Yale School of Public Health (YSPH). This test has received Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Quality Promise
As a CLIA-certified high-complexity diagnostic laboratory, we adhere to the strictest quality control standards and policies in the molecular diagnostics industry.
We utilize laboratory automation and barcoding systems that are integrated into our laboratory information system to track each specimen through processing steps. This significantly minimizes the risk of sample mix-up and cross-contamination. Each specimen, upon receiving, goes through multiple quality control checkpoints to ensure each patient receives reliable test results. If you have any questions about our quality standards, please contact us.
