Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol
The clinical performance of the Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test was evaluated in a multi-center, prospective clinical study in the U.S. between November 2022 and February 2025. The study only enrolled subjects who presented with symptoms of respiratory infection. A total of one thousand nine hundred sixty-nine (1,969) subjects were consecutively enrolled and tested by fourteen (14) operators across six (6) different clinical CLIA-waived sites. Two anterior nasal swabs were collected from each study subject during the same visit. The first AN swab specimen for the comparator method was collected by the operators from both sides of the nose. The collected AN swab specimen was stored/transported and tested at a reference laboratory with an FDA cleared RT-PCR method as per the cleared instruction for use. The second AN swab specimen was collected from both sides of the nose using the provided swab and was tested immediately using the Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test by an operator at the site.
Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Analytical Performance:
- Precision/Reproducibility:
- Within Laboratory Precision: Two operators conducted 24 test runs over 12 days (96 replicates per level) with blind sample panels (True Negative, High Negative - 0.1x LoD, Low Positive - 1x LoD, Moderate Positive - 3x LoD) for SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B. Results showed 100% agreement. A second study evaluated between-lot variability using negative, C90 (low positive), and 3x LoD samples across 3 lots and 2 operators (72 replicates per level). Results showed varying agreement for C90 samples (e.g., SARS-CoV-2 C90 ranged from 83.3% to 95.8% positive agreement across lots/operators) but 100% agreement for negative and 3x LoD samples.
- Reproducibility: Conducted at 4 distinct sites (total 8 untrained operators at 3 CLIA waived sites and 3 operators at internal site), testing 3 reagent lots, using coded panels of contrived samples (TN, HN - 0.1x LoD, LP - 1.0 x LoD, MP - 5.0 x LoD) for each analyte. A total of 150 coded samples per operator were tested over 5 nonconsecutive days. All samples tested showed no significant difference between sites. Agreement for TN, HN COVID, HN Flu A, LP COVID, LP Flu B, MP COVID, MP Flu A, MP Flu B was 100%. HN Flu B and LP Flu A showed 99.4% agreement.
- Cross-reactivity (Analytical Specificity): Tested 50 potential cross-reactive or interfering pathogens (19 bacteria, 1 fungus, 28 viruses) and 2 negative matrices in the absence or presence of 2x LoD concentrations of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B antigens (3 replicates each). No cross-reactivity or interference observed. Coronavirus HKU1 was not tested for cross-reactivity, but 20 clinical samples containing it tested negative.
- Endogenous/Exogenous Interference: Tested medically relevant substances (nasal sprays, oral pain relievers, hand sanitizers, common medications, biological substances like mucin and whole blood, biotin) at specified concentrations with 2x LoD virus concentrations (3 replicates each). No interference observed, except for hand sanitizer lotion at 15% w/v, which resulted in false negative Influenza B results.
- Specimen Stability: Nasal swab samples (negative and 2x LoD positive for SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B) were subjected to 4 temperature conditions (23.5°C, 30°C, 2-8°C, -20°C) for various time intervals up to 48 hours (5 replicates each). Samples were stable for up to 48 hours under all conditions. Recommended processing: within 1 hour at room temp, within 24 hours at 2-8°C.
- Detection Limit (LoD): Determined using two SARS-CoV-2 Omicron strains, two influenza A strains, and two influenza B strains spiked into pooled negative nasal fluid matrix. Confirmed by testing 20 replicates:
- SARS-CoV-2 (USA/MD-HP20874/2021): 1.95x10^2 TCID50/mL (9.75x10^0 TCID50/swab) with 95% positive rate.
- SARS-CoV-2 (USA/COR-22-0631 13/2022): 1.27x10^4 TCID50/mL (6.35x10^2 TCID50/swab) with 100% positive rate.
- Influenza A (A/California/04 /2009): 2.8x10^3 TCID50/mL (1.4x10^2 TCID50/swab) with 100% positive rate.
- Influenza A (A/Victoria/361/2011): 1.4x10^5 CEID50/mL (7.0x10^3 CEID50/swab) with 95% positive rate.
- Influenza B (B/Hong Kong/330/2001): 2.25x10^5 CEID50/mL (1.13x10^4 CEID50/swab) with 95% positive rate.
- Influenza B (B/Phuket/3073/13): 1.04x10^2 TCID50/mL (5.2x10^0 TCID50/swab) with 100% positive rate.
- LoD for 1st WHO International Standard for SARS-CoV-2 Antigen (NIBSC 21/368) in nasal fluid matrix was 667 IU/mL (33.5 IU/swab).
- Analytical Reactivity (Inclusivity): Tested 14 strains of SARS-CoV-2, 31 strains of influenza A, and 16 strains of influenza B (3 replicates each). The lowest concentration of each strain that resulted in 100% detection (3/3) was determined.
- High Dose Hook Effect: Tested with high concentrations of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B in negative nasal fluid matrix (3 replicates each). No high-dose hook effect observed for the tested concentrations.
- Competitive Interference Study: Tested co-infection scenarios with high and low titers of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B. No competitive interference observed.

A. Device Description:
The Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay intended for in vitro rapid, simultaneous qualitative detection and differentiation of influenza A, and influenza B nucleoprotein antigens and SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid antigen directly from anterior nasal swab specimens.
The assay kit consists of 25 test cassette devices, 25 reagent tubes, 25 ampules containing extraction buffer, 25 anterior nasal specimen collection swabs, one positive control swab, one negative control swab, one Instructions for Use, and one Quick Reference Instruction. An external positive control swab contains noninfectious influenza A, influenza B, and SARS-CoV-2 antigens dried onto the swab and an external negative control swab contains noninfectious blank universal viral transport media dried on the swab. The kit should be stored at 2°C - 30°C.
B. Principles of Operations:
The Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test is designed to detect the extracted nucleoprotein antigen specific to influenza A, and influenza B and the extracted nucleocapsid antigen specific to SARS-CoV-2 in ANS specimens directly collected from patients exhibiting signs or symptoms of a respiratory infection.
The test strip enclosed in a cassette housing is comprised of the following components: sample pad,
Page 7
reagent pad, biotin pad, reaction membrane, and absorbent pad. The reagent pad contains colloidal gold conjugated with monoclonal antibodies (mAb) specific for SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B target proteins. The biotin pad contains biotin conjugated with mAb specific for SARS-CoV-2. The reaction membrane contains the secondary antibodies for the proteins of Flu A and Flu B, and streptavidin for the biotinylated SARS-CoV-2 antibody. The whole strip is fixed inside a plastic cassette.
When the specimens are extracted and added to the sample well of the test device, Flu A, Flu B nucleoproteins and/or SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid antigen is present in the specimen, a complex form between the anti-Flu A/Flu B/ SARS-CoV-2 conjugate and the viral antigen will be captured by the streptavidin or specific anti-Flu A/Flu B mAb coated on the test line region (C/A/B line). The absence of the test line (C/A/B line) suggests a negative result. To serve as a procedural control, a red line will always appear in the control line region (CON) indicating that proper volume of sample has been added and membrane wicking has occurred. Any result without this control line is invalid.

The study results demonstrated 100% agreement for all samples. These findings satisfied the acceptance criteria of the precision study
Study 2 was specifically conducted to assess between-lot variability. The study used negative samples (without virus analytes), low positive samples at C90, and moderate positive (3× LoD) samples for each analyte (SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B). Samples were blinded and tested randomized. This supplemental precision testing was conducted by two operators, with each operator conducting 12 test runs per lot over 12 days with three lots, resulting in a total of 72 replicates per level. The lot and operator stratified results from this testing are included in Table 2 below.

Precision estimates for samples negative samples, low positive samples (C90), and moderate positive (3× LoD), are expected to be low due to the random errors of the testing procedure across different days and runs, paired with an operator's ability to read the line intensity for samples with very low analyte concentration.
Taken together, the results of both precision assessments demonstrate a test precision and a lot-to-lot precision that are consistent with the expectations for the analyte concentrations in the samples, the test's technology, and the test's LoD. The between-lot variability does not impact low-concentrated samples equal to or above 3 X LoD of the test.
b) Reproducibility
The reproducibility study was designed to evaluate site-to-site, operator-to-operator, and level-to-level variability and demonstrate that the Nano-Check™ Influenza +COVID-19 Dual Test can be performed consistently and correctly. This study was conducted at 4 distinct sites, each with two (2) or three (3) different operators, testing three (3) reagent lots, using a coded panel of contrived samples consisting of a true negative (TN), a high negative sample (HN, 0.1x LoD), a low positive (LP, 1.0 x LoD) and a medium positive (MP, 5.0 x LoD) sample for each analyte (SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B). A total of 8 untrained operators at 3 CLIA waived sites and 3 operators in the internal site each tested using 150 coded samples (TN: 15, HN COVID: 15, HN-Flu A: 15, HN-Flu B: 15, LP-COVID: 15, LP-Flu A: 15, LP-Flu B: 15, MP-COVID: 15, MP-Flu A: 15, MP-Flu B: 15, respectively) over five nonconsecutive days. The summary of results is presented in Table 3 below.

d) Specimen Stability
Two test samples were prepared for the specimen stability study: a negative sample (consisting of pooled human nasal fluid with no analyte) and a low positive sample (containing a diluted SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B sample at 2 x LoD in the negative pooled human nasal fluid). Swabs were spiked with 50 μL of each sample and subjected to four different temperature conditions: room temperature (23.5°C), high room temperature (30 °C), 2°C to 8°C and frozen (-20°C). The samples were stored under each condition for various time intervals including 0 hours, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 24 hours, and 48 hours. Subsequently, the exposed sample swabs were tested using 5 replicates for each exposure time, as shown in Table 7 below.

6. Detection Limit:
The Limit of Detection (LoD) was determined with two SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant strains (USA/MD-HP20874/2021, USA/COR-22-0631 13/2022), two influenza A strains (influenza A H1N1: A/California/04 /2009, influenza A H3N2: A/Victoria/361/2011) and two influenza B strains (influenza B/Hong Kong/330/2001, influenza B/Phuket/3073/13). Contrived samples were prepared by spiking the strains into a pooled negative nasal fluid matrix. A preliminary LoD was determined by spiking 50 µL of serially diluted sample onto swab heads and tested using the Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test. The preliminary LoD initially determined by testing a two-fold serial dilution series of 3 replicates was confirmed by testing in 20 replicates. The results from these studies are summarized below in Table 8.
Table 8. Limit of Detection (LoD)
Virus | Strain | LoD | Positive Rate (%) (# Positive/# Tested |
---|---|---|---|
SARS-CoV-2 | USA/MD-HP20874/2021, Heat Inactivated | 1.95×10² TCID₅₀/mL (9.75×10⁰ TCID₅₀/swab) | 95% |
USA/COR-22-063113/2022, Heat Inactivated | 1.27×10⁴ TCID₅₀/mL (6.35×10² TCID₅₀/swab) | 100% | |
Influenza A | H1N1: A/California/04/2009 | 2.8×10³ TCID₅₀/mL (1.4×10² TCID₅₀/swab) | 100% |
H3N2: A/Victoria/361/2011 | 1.4×10⁵ CEID₅₀/mL (7.0×10³ CEID₅₀/swab) | 95% | |
Influenza B | Victoria: B/Hong Kong/330/2001 | 2.25×10⁵ CEID₅₀/mL (1.13×10⁴ CEID₅₀/swab) | 95% |
Yamagata: B/Phuket/3073/13 | 1.04×10² TCID₅₀/mL (5.2×10⁰ TCID₅₀/swab) | 100% |
Furthermore, the LoD was established using the 1st WHO International Standard for SARS-CoV-2 Antigen (NIBSC 21/368) in real clinical matrix of nasal fluid. Initially, a preliminary LoD test was performed by spiking 50 µL of each diluted sample onto the sample collection swab head in three replicates. Following this, a confirmatory LoD test with 17 additional replicates was conducted at the preliminary LoD concentration, a total of 20 replications. To determine LoD concentration, additional dilutions were investigated bracketing the confirmed LoD concentration, with each dilution level undergoing 20 replications. It was determined that the LoD of the 1st WHO International Standard for SARS-CoV-2 Antigen (NIBSC 21/368) in the nasal fluid matrix was confirmed to be 667 IU/mL (33.5 IU/swab).
7. Analytical Reactivity (Inclusivity):
A total of 14 strains of SARS-CoV-2, 31 strains of influenza A, and 16 strains of influenza B were tested in the inclusivity study. The virus stocks were diluted at the predetermined concentration in the pooled negative nasal fluid matrix and 50 μL were pipetted onto the swabs. The swabs were tested in 3 replicates in this study. The lowest concentration of each strain that resulted in 100% detection (3/3) is presented in Table 9 below.

8. High Dose Hook Effect:
High-dose hook effect study was conducted to determine if a hook effect would be observed at high concentrations of the analyte (i.e., a false negative at high concentrations of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B) in a testing sample. The series of three or five concentrations with each two (2) strains of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B were prepared in pooled negative nasal fluid matrix and tested in three replicates on Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test. The concentration of each virus in the prepared samples ranged from the maximum virus concentration possible (undiluted virus stock) to 2x LoD. All spiked samples were 100% positive, as expected, at all tested concentrations. The Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test showed no high-dose hook effect when subjected to 3.89×10⁴ TCID₅₀/mL for SARS-CoV-2, USA/MD-HP20874/2021 (B.1.1.529, Omicron Variant), 2.53×10⁶ TCID₅₀/mL for SARS-CoV-2, USA/COR-22-063113/2022 (BA.5, Omicron Variant), 2.8×10⁶ TCID₅₀/mL for influenza A (A/California/04/2009, H1N1), 2.8×10⁸ CEID₅₀/mL for influenza A (A/Victoria/361/2011, H3N2), 1.8×10⁷ TCID₅₀/mL for
Page 20
influenza B (B/Hong Kong/330/2001, Victoria) and 4.17×10⁵ TCID₅₀/mL for influenza B (B/Phuket/3073/13, Yamagata).
9. Competitive Interference Study
For co-infection, SARS-CoV-2 at levels near LoD was tested in the presence of high levels of influenza A or influenza B and near LoD influenza A and influenza B in the presence of high levels of SARS-CoV-2. Additionally, the performance of Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test was evaluated in the presence of high levels of influenza A and influenza B. Contrived high and low titer influenza A (H1N1 and H3N2) and B positive samples were. No competitive interference was observed between SARS-CoV-2 and influenza A and B as listed in Table 10 below.

C. Clinical Study:
The clinical performance of the Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test was evaluated in a multi-center, prospective clinical study in the U.S. between November 2022 and February 2025. The study only enrolled subjects who presented with symptoms of respiratory infection. A total of one thousand nine hundred sixty-nine (1,969) subjects were consecutively enrolled and tested by fourteen (14) operators across six (6) different clinical CLIA-waived sites. Two anterior nasal
Page 22
swabs were collected from each study subject during the same visit. The first AN swab specimen for the comparator method was collected by the operators from both sides of the nose. The collected AN swab specimen was stored/transported and tested at a reference laboratory with an FDA cleared RT-PCR method as per the cleared instruction for use. The second AN swab specimen was collected from both sides of the nose using the provided swab and was tested immediately using the Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test by an operator at the site.
There were 1,969 subjects evaluated, 21.1% were collected from patients who are 5 years or younger, 43.8% from patients aged 6-21 years, 26.3 % from patients aged 22 to 60 years, and 8.8% from patients aged 61 years or older. Among the subjects, 51.6% were from female patients, while 48.4% were from male patients. Results obtained with the Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test were compared to the results obtained with the RT-PCR comparator test to determine clinical sensitivity and specificity.
For SARS-CoV-2 detection, 265 of these specimens tested positive, and 1,704 tested negative by the FDA-cleared RT-PCR method. The comparison of Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test results with the comparator method results showed a PPA of 87.6% (232/265) with a 95% CI of 83.0% - 91.0%, NPA of 99.8% (1,701/1,704) with a 95% CI of 99.5% - 99.9%.
For influenza A detection, 480 of these specimens tested positive, and 1,489 tested negative by the FDA-cleared RT-PCR method.

D. Clinical Cut-Off:
Not Applicable since there is no clinical cutoff related to the presence of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B in patient samples.
E. Expected Value/Reference Range:
The rate of positivity as determined by the Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test during the 2022-2025 clinical study was 21.5% for influenza A (423/1,969), 5.3% for influenza B (104/1,969), and 11.9% for SARS-CoV-2 (235/1,969).
F. Other Supportive Information:
1. Flex Studies
To assess the robustness and risk for false results of the test when deviating from the IFU/QRI test steps, flex studies were conducted that assessed all major aspects of the test procedure (sample volume, reading time, other deviations from the procedure [delay in mixing, delay in addition of sample to the well, incubation time] and variability of environmental test conditions that the test may be subjected to when in use (lighting, disturbance during use, temperature and humidity stress conditions). The test was performed with contrived positive nasal swabs generated by diluting SARS-CoV-2 virus, influenza A, and influenza B into a negative nasal fluid matrix at 2xLoD. The results demonstrated that the test system is robust and that false results can be expected to be reasonably mitigated through labeling.
VIII. Conclusion
The information presented in this Premarket Notification is complete and supports a substantial equivalence decision. Based on the comparison of technological characteristics and intended use, and as a result of the non-clinical and clinical performance testing completed on Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test, the proposed device does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness and supports the conclusion that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. The results of non-clinical and clinical testing demonstrate that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate device. Therefore, the Nano-Check™ Influenza+COVID-19 Dual Test is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
