Individual EUAs for Antigen Diagnostic Tests for SARS-CoV-2
This table includes information about authorized SARS-CoV-2 antigen diagnostic tests that have been authorized individually. These EUAs have been issued for each individual test with certain conditions of authorization required of the manufacturer and authorized laboratories. Test attributes are listed in the “Attributes” column. For example, tests authorized for the screening of asymptomatic individuals without known exposure are listed with “screening” in the attribute column; pooling, multi-analyte, saliva, home collection, and home testing are similarly listed. Tests available without a prescription include the attribute “DTC” (for direct-to-consumer home collection tests) or “OTC” (for over-the-counter at-home tests).

Tests with “single target” in the attribute column are:
- designed to detect only one antigen target, currently either a section of the spike protein or a section of the nucleocapsid protein;
- more susceptible to changes in performance due to viral mutations, meaning they are more likely to fail to detect new variants.
Tests with “multiple targets” in the attribute column are:
- designed to detect more than one section of the proteins that make up SARS-CoV-2;
- more likely to continue to perform as labeled as new variants emerge.
To see additional authorization documents, such as letters granting EUA amendments or revisions, and a list of other brand names authorized under a specific EUA, select the plus (+) button beside the “Date EUA Issued or Last Updated” for each EUA.

Revision Concerning Viral Mutations
On September 23, 2021, the FDA revised the EUAs of certain molecular, antigen, and serology tests to establish additional Conditions of Authorization in response to the continued emergence of new variants of SARS-CoV-2. The revision requires test developers to update their authorized labeling and evaluate the impact of SARS-CoV-2 viral mutations on their test’s performance as outlined in the letter. This revision is effective as of September 23, 2021 for all EUAs that are within the scope of the revision. This revision does not apply to EUAs for authorized IL-6 assays or standalone specimen collection devices and does not apply to EUAs that include substantially equivalent viral mutation conditions of authorization.
The FDA has determined that establishing additional conditions is necessary to mitigate the potential risk of false negative results due to either decreased sensitivity or non-reactivity associated with SARS-CoV-2 viral mutations. As set forth in the September 23, 2021 letter, developers of authorized tests that are within the scope of the revision are now required to routinely monitor emerging viral mutations and their potential impact on the performance of the authorized SARS-CoV-2 test(s). If potential impacts are identified, the EUA holder must communicate with the FDA and end users about the potential risk that presence of the mutations may have on test performance. The EUA holder must also update their authorized labeling consistent with the revision letter and submit the labeling to the FDA within 3 months of September 23, 2021. By taking these steps, the FDA and the test developer can quickly act in response to the potential risks identified and, when applicable, share the findings on SARS-CoV-2 Viral Mutations: Impact on COVID-19 Tests.
