Commercialization of Testing Kit
With the testing kit having received EUA approval in December of 2020, the product is available for purchase on Amazon’s website. It can currently only be purchased by qualified medical point-of-care (POC) providers, such as physicians and medical facilities who will receive the testing kits within 2 business days of ordering.
What Does the Testing Kit Do?
The testing kit serves to identify the presence of antibody in the test subject, indicating previous exposure to the virus or a confirmation of having been vaccinated. As the body’s natural biological response to both infections and vaccinations, the development of antibodies marks the beginning of the body’s process of building immunity against recurrence of the infection.
Scope of Testing Kit
One of the key benefits to the test is confirming the presence of antibodies in test subjects who were infected, either knowingly or unknowingly. The test presents a tool that provides extra information to help make the decision of getting a vaccination or not. Furthermore, the testing kit can be used to gauge the success of vaccinations initially and in the persistence over time of the measured antibodies.
Future Collaborations
As the largest online retail platform in the world, this is a great opportunity for PRPO, further consolidating the benefit of its partnership with Nirmidas. Following the appropriate designation by the FDA, PRPO hopes to collaborate with other retail outlets to facilitate the proliferation of the testing kit for at-home use.
Future Outlook for PRPO
With the world hurtling towards immunizations, PRPO’s testing kits greatly facilitate the process and reduce the burden on both care-givers and patients. The provision of convenient, safe, and reliable testing results is likely to find great demand, and PRPO is poised to leverage its resources to meet that demand and usher in unprecedented growth and increases in shareholder value.
