摘要
•Analytical sensitivity of SARS-CoV-2 Ag-RDTs ranges from 1.0 × 106-5.5 × 107 copies/mL.•Even short-term exposure to 37 °C reduces sensitivity of SARS-CoV-2 Ag-RDTs.•Elevated temperatures impair sensitivity at clinically relevant virus concentrations.•Low temperatures limit SARS-CoV-2 Ag-RDT specificity.•Storage and operation of SARS-CoV-2 Ag-RDTs at recommended conditions is essential.
