What is it indicated for?

The BioStar® FLU OIA assay is an Optical InmunoAssay (OIA) test for the qualitative, rapid detection of influenza A and B viral antigen (nucleoprotein) from nasal aspirate, nasopharyngeal swabs, throat swabs, or sputum specimens. This test is intended for in vitro use to aid in influenza A and B viral infections. The FLU OIA is not intended to detect influenza C. Negative test results should be confirmed by culture [isolation].

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
