VIROTROL SARS-CoV-2 and VIROCLEAR SARS-CoV-2 for SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Lab Testing
To ensure an unbiased independent assessment of a laboratory's test systems, we offer VIROTROL and VIROCLEAR SARS-CoV-2 antibody controls. These ready-to-use, liquid controls are formulated from human plasma to test on total IgG/IgM and IgG antibody assays. VIROTROL and VIROCLEAR SARS-CoV-2 are available in three separate classes specifically designed to challenge the assay cutoff of a broad range of methodologies. Laboratories can achieve greater confidence in patient test results by running independent SARS-CoV-2 quality controls with their SARS-CoV-2 antibody assays.
