Our amonmed covid-19 rapid antigen saliva test kits are a high-sensitivity lateral flow antigen test. We currently sell these tests in 5-pack test kits. As they are a saliva-based test, many people find them easier to use than the antigen swab tests. The covid-19 antigen saliva test kit is used for the qualitative detection of novel coronavirus (covid-19) antigen in saliva sample, only for in vitro diagnostic use. The covid-19 antigen saliva test kit (colloidal
gold
) has been evaluated with specimens obtained from patients.
A commercialised molecular assay was used as the reference method. The results show that the covid-19 antigen saliva test kit (colloidal gold) has a high overall relative accuracy.

Sars-cov-2 antigen test results should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosing or ruling out sars-cov-2 infection or for informing about the status of the infection. Results from sars-cov-2 antigen testing should not be used as the sole basis to diagnose or exclude sars-cov-2 infection or to inform infection status. Negative results do not rule out sars-cov-2 infection, particularly in those who have been in contact with the virus. Follow-up testing with a molecular diagnostic and or ct should be considered to rule out infection in these individuals. Positive results may be due to present infection with sars-coronavirus strains, see “cross-reactivity” for details.
Within 15 minutes, you will receive the results of your test. A positive result indicates the presence of the covid-19 virus in your sample. It is recommended that you self-isolate if you have a positive test. You should then make an appointment with your gp for an hse pcr covid test.
COVID-19 PCR test results
Bring photo id, ideally your passport as the details for your travel cert must match your travel documents. Please note
although the test has a high sensitivity and specificity it is not 100% accurate and there is a change that there may be false positive or false negative results. Rapid antigen tests are not as accurate as pcr tests and are designed to detect the virus at levels that are more likely to mean that you’re infectious and could spread the infection to others.
If your test returns positive, you will be advised by the pharmacist to get a pcr test to confirm and will not receive a travel certificate.
In many cases, if you are travelling abroad, a swab for covid-19 must be carried out and certified. Typically, a pcr is required within 48 to 72 hours before departure and an antigen is needed within 24 to 48 hours before flying. The certificate needs to show that you are currently not infected and fit to fly. Check the latest guidance and travel advice from the irish department of foreign affairs. The eu has introduced a traffic light system that requires pre-flight testing for individuals departing from several countries. You can view the latest travel restrictions for more info.
