The clearance for the BD FACSDuet Sample Preparation System enables it to be integrated with the BD FACSLyric Flow Cytometer.

The RT-PCR-based test, which runs on Becton Dickinson's BD Max system, simultaneously detects SARS-CoV-2, influenza A and B, and respiratory syncytial virus.

The test, which received Emergency Use Authorization from the US Food and Drug Administration in July, runs on the BD Veritor Plus Analyzer System.

The supplement adds a collection vial to the BD Onclarity test and includes performance data for the BD Viper LT and the BD COR Systems.

The new report said that point-of-care testing could rise to 70 million tests per month, or more, by October based on manufacturers' announced market entry plans.

In using the act, the HHS applied priority-rated orders for SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic supply contracts with Becton Dickinson and Quidel through September.
