Download OverviewA Platform for Large-Scale, Decentralized COVID-19 Research and Trials
1.
High-throughput, virology testing infrastructure, supporting self-swab sample collection for scalability & remote access
2.
Intuitive, easy-to-use digital experience for enrollment, data collection and reporting
3.
Modular research platform to simplify operations and launches of epidemiological studies, surveillance, and vaccine trial research
Distributed testing infrastructure delivers fast, clinical-grade results
EUA from FDA for clinician-monitored and self-swab COVID-19 testing
Color received an EUA for monitored and self-collection testing, and uses an RT- LAMP diagnostic assay (EUA200539) that relies on a different supply chain than standard RT-PCR, reducing reliance on more expensive materials in short supply.
Fast turnaround
Color operates a high-throughput, CLIA-certified lab, processing thousands of tests in CAP daily, for fast, accurate results, averaging a 24-hour turnaround.1
