3. Conclusion
1) 15 positive specimens which were confirmed by RT-PCR are tested with BIOCREDIT
COVID-19 Ag kit, and 12 specimens are identified as positive as well.
2) 2 negative specimens which were confirmed by RT-PCR are tested with BIOCREDIT
COVID-19 Ag kit, and all the specimens are identified as negative.

3) UTM specimen test has a specimen dilution effect comparing to direct nasopharyngeal
swab collection method. Consequently, sensitivity becomes lower than original swab
specimen when BIOCREDIT COVID-19 Ag is tested using UTM specimen.
[Comment]
(A001, 08Mar2020) PCR CT Value (E:31.95, R:34.49, N:35.95) & (A002, 14Mar2020) PCR CT Value (E:32.60, R:34.83, N:36.59)
In these two cases, PCR CT Value show near offset(decision) value (34~36). According as the offset value setting, this result
can be decided by "NEGATIVE" also.
Including these two cases, Sensitivity is 12/15, 80%. Except them (as invalid result), 12/13, 92.3%.
