Performance characteristics.
Analytical Performance
12.1
Sensitivity (Limit of Detection)
The Analytical Sensitivity or Limit of Detection (LoD) is defined as the lowest concentration at which
≥ 95% samples tested generate a positive call.
The LoD of the DiagCORE
®
Respiratory Panel 2 was determined per analyte using selected strains
representing individual pathogens possible to detect with the DiagCORE
®
Respiratory Panel 2.
Simulated NPS sample matrix (cultured human cells in Copan UTM) was spiked with one or more
pathogens and tested in 20 replicates.
Individual LoD values for each DiagCORE
®
Respiratory panel 2 target is shown in the table below.
Table 1. LoD values obtained for the different respiratory target strains tested in the DiagCORE
®
Respiratory panel 2.
