Aptar announced that its Activ-Film technology has been selected to protect a new SARS Rapid Antigen test for COVID-19 that recently received Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The QuickVue SARS Antigen test is a point-of-care rapid antigen test developed by Quidel Corporation, a leading manufacturer of diagnostic healthcare solutions, that delivers test results in 10 minutes.

The visually read test requires no supplemental instrumentation and offers expanded access to affordable and accurate COVID-19 testing that will help meet the urgent testing needs of the global economy, including for those in school systems and rural areas.

Activ-Film technology was selected to protect a new SARS Rapid Antigen test for COVID-19.

Aptar CSP Technologies’ Activ-Film technology is integrated into the diagnostic kit to protect against moisture and other environmental conditions that could otherwise impact test accuracy. Activ-Film leverages Aptar’s proprietary 3-Phase Activ-Polymer technology, which provides a broad spectrum of custom-engineered protection in a variety of configurations, such as Activ-Vial for housing diagnostics dipsticks and Activ-Tab integrated within diagnostic cassettes.

This material science-based active packaging technology is currently used to protect a range of electrochemical, lateral flow and molecular diagnostic test kits on the market today.

“We are pleased to partner with Quidel Corporation on this critical diagnostic tool and help bring the QuickVue SARS Rapid Antigen test to the market,” said Stephan B. Tanda, Aptar President and CEO. “Our material science Activ-Film technology protects the test strips, helping to provide quick, reliable results.”

Badre Hammond, Vice President Commercial Operations, Aptar CSP Technologies commented, “We are committed to leveraging our material science expertise to enable our partners to meet the ongoing need for innovative healthcare solutions that help improve and save lives.”
