How is the antigen sample analyzed?
Right now, we use three different brands to carry out our antigen tests: Newgene, Vitrosens and Healgen. All three are practical to use and provide results and travel certificates within an hour.
Vitrosens makes it possible to do an antigen test via saliva samples, but note that this technology is no longer approved for travel within the EU. To obtain the EU certificate, a nasal or oral test is required!
