The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted emergency use authorization (EUA) for the xMAP® MultiFLEX™ Zika RNA Assay.
This multiplex nucleic acid test is designed to detect Zika virus RNA in blood serum, plasma, or urine (collected alongside a patient-matched serum or plasma specimen).
The xMAP® MultiFLEX™ Zika RNA Assay is available for purchase by laboratories that are certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) to perform high complexity tests.
The assay uses the Luminex® 100/200™ analyzer, MAGPIX® system, or other authorized instruments to simultaneously test for 6 genetic targets of the Zika virus.
The xMAP® MultiFLEX™ Zika RNA Assay was designed by GenArraytion, Inc. and is marketed by Luminex Corporation.
For more information on the test, see the fact sheet for healthcare providers on the Luminex website.
About the EUA
The EUA does not mean the xMAP® MultiFLEX™ Zika RNA Assay is FDA cleared or approved.
An EUA allows for the use of unapproved medical products or unapproved uses of approved medical products in an emergency.
The products must be used to diagnose, treat, or prevent serious or life-threatening conditions caused by chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear threat agents, when there are no adequate alternatives.
This means the xMAP® MultiFLEX™ Zika RNA Assay is only authorized as long as circumstances exist to justify the authorization of the emergency use of in vitro diagnostics for the detection of Zika virus, unless the authorization is terminated or revoked sooner.
