World's first Corona antigen self-test certified EU-wide

BOSON 'Rapid SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Test Card' receives CE certificate from TÜV SÜD for private-use

Austria/Graz, 12th April 2021 - Technomed, a provider of medical technology solutions and products, distributes for the world's first Covid-19 antigen-rapid self-test for use throughout the EU. The Corona self-test BOSON 'Rapid SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Test Card' was the first product to be duly tested and certified by the regulatory body TÜV SÜD Product Service GmbH. This means that the self-test has been awarded the EC certificate, which confirms the quality and reliability of the product.

"We are very proud to be able to supply the whole of Europe with the BOSON 'Rapid SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Test Card' self-test, a high-quality product for containing and combating the pandemic," says Dr. Moritz Bubik, CEO of Technomed. Products that contribute to pandemic containment must also offer proven quality, reliability, availability and affordability. Only with the full certification process can the quality and reliability that end users expects and deserves be demonstrated."

Sales planning in various European markets is already underway, with availability of the self-test already in place. Around 20 million tests are already being produced each week in various types of packaging: the single pack, the 5-pack and a 20-pack. Technomed will continue to diversify its distribution channels, supplying public agencies, specialty and pharmaceutical distributors, as well as retailers.

The Corona antigen self-test is performed via a swab in the anterior nasal region. The result is available after approximately 15 minutes – all currently known mutations of the virus are detected. The product consists of test cassettes, swabs, vial with extraction solution, tube with dropper cap and instructions for private use. The Covid-19-antigen self-test has already received special approval from the German Federal Agency for Drugs and Medical Devices (BfArM) on Feb. 24, 2021. This served to bridge the time until the full approval.
