RT-PCR test:
A negative result indicates that SARS-CoV2 virus was not found in your sample. This does not mean that you are protected from infection, or that you are guaranteed to be disease-free. In some cases, if the sample is collected very shortly after contracting the virus, you could still be infected and may need another test if you develop symptoms after the first one.
A positive RT-PCR test indicates the presence of an active COVID-19 infection. If your test is positive, you should consider yourself infected and follow the CDC Guidelines for self-quarantine and/or further medical treatment.
We have Expanded our test portfolio to include a highly accurate COVID Antibody Elisa that can distinguish between COVID infection versus vaccine response.
We will be adding Semi-Quantitative measurement of your immunity to delta and Omicron variant in the near future.
Sure! Just email us at info@arborvita.com with any further questions you have and we would be happy to assist. Potential Providers, use this email to set up an account.
Yes, please refrain from eating, drinking or brushing your teeth 30 minutes before giving your sample.
The saliva sampling has become very popular with people that are screened on a regular basis. There is no trauma associated with this type of collection.
If you want your passport information on your test report, please email us your passport information on the morning of your appointment. Do not email earlier or later.
Arbor Vita used the real-time RT-PCR COVID-19 test (the most accurate technique and recommended by all agencies) combined with easy and pain-free collection techniques. Saliva and nasal samples (insert only the tip of the swab into the nose) are self-collected under supervision. This is not the long nasopharyngeal swab you may have experienced or heard about before; only the tip of this short swab is inserted into the nostril.
For saliva samples, we have proudly partnered with Yale University’s School of Public Health to offer the SalivaDirect™ realtime RT-PCR test. This groundbreaking, state-of-the-art new testing procedure permits fast and painless sample collection. It is quickly becoming the procedure of choice for people that need frequent testing.
The SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR test is indicated for people who may be undergoing symptoms of COVID-19, or who have been exposed to others with the disease in the past 1-2 weeks (cost covered by the CARES ACT for both the insured and the uninsured). It is also required by many airlines and destination countries for air travel to have RT-PCR results specifically within 3 days hours of the flight.
A positive test result means that SARS-CoV-2 virus is found in the sample, indicating possible active COVID-19 disease. A negative result means the virus was not detected in the sample. Note that some samples may contain a minute amount of virus and still yield a false negative result.
Important information about the SalivaDirect™ Test:
This test has not been FDA cleared or approved. It has been authorized by the FDA under an (EUA) emergency use authorization for use by authorized laboratories. The test has been authorized for the detection of nucleic acid from SARS-CoV-2, not for any other viruses or pathogens. This test is only authorized for the duration of the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of emergency use of in vitro diagnostic tests for detection and/or diagnosis of COVID-19 under Section 564(b)(1) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360bbb-3(b)(1), unless the authorization is terminated or revoked sooner.
