XPhyto Therapeutics (CSE: XPHY) (OTCQB: XPHYF) (FSE: 4XT),a bioscience accelerator focused on next-generation drug delivery, diagnostic and new active pharmaceutical ingredient investment opportunities, along with its German diagnostics development partner, 3a-diagnostics GmbH (“3a”), has received European approval of its point-of-care SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR test system, called Covid-ID Lab. Covid-ID Lab is now registered as a commercial in vitro diagnostic (CE-IVD) test in Europe, and plans are in place to launch the product in Europe in April 2021. XPhyto is exploring options with various potential distribution and wholesale partners as well as potential licensees. The test offers high sensitivity, high specificity, and high robustness, with no impact on results from minor changes in process parameters. In addition to detecting COVID-19, specificity of 100% against 19 pathogens of serious respiratory infections was demonstrated on a respiratory verification panel. In testing, the systems showed precision through evaluation of variance of the analysis results due to random deviations, a repeatability/intra-assay precision. “Our test is one of the fastest PCR-based COVID-19 tests currently approved. With a sample collection to result time of 25 minutes, Covid-ID Lab combines the speed of a rapid screening test with the accuracy of a PCR diagnostic,” said XPhyto director and CEO Hugh Rogers in the press release. “Covid-ID Lab is designed for point-of-care testing, particularly in satellite and small-scale labs, such as transportation hubs, borders, care facilities, schools, pharmacies, and hospitality settings.”
