There are three main methods for new coronavirus testing: nucleic acid, antibody, and antigen. The new coronavirus self-test kit is an antigen test that is easy and quick to operate.
The difference between antigen detection and nucleic acid detection
Antigens are like the clothes that the virus wears outside, and nucleic acids are the genes inside the virus; Antigen testing starts with antibodies to test the clothes part, allowing the virus to show up.
