OraSure Technologies develops, manufactures and markets point-of-care, oral fluid specimen collection devices that leverage proprietary oral fluid technologies, diagnostic products, including immunoassays and other in vitro diagnostic tests, and other medical devices.

OraSure Technologies’ current products are as follows:

HIV

  • OraQuick ADVANCE® Rapid HIV-1/2 Antibody Test – the first and only FDA approved, CLIA-waived, rapid point-of-care test that can detect antibodies to both HIV-1 and HIV-2 with greater than 99% accuracy in as little as 20 minutes, using an oral fluid, finger-stick or venipuncture whole blood, or plasma sample.
  • OraSure® HIV-1 Oral Fluid Specimen Collection Device – the only FDA-approved, laboratory-based collection device that collects oral fluid to test for antibodies to the HIV-1 virus.

HCV

  • OraQuick® HCV Rapid Antibody Test – the first and only FDA-approved rapid HCV test in the U.S. OraQuick® HCV is approved for the detection of HCV antibodies in venous whole blood specimens for individuals at risk. The test received the CE Mark for use with oral fluid, whole blood, serum and plasma for HCV.

Influenza

  • OraSure QuickFlu(TM) Rapid Flu A+B Test – an FDA-cleared, in vitro rapid qualitative test for the detection of influenza (flu) type A and type B, including H1N1 viral infections. The test specimen is collected with a nasal swab, nasopharyngeal swab, or nasal aspirate/wash and results are available in as little as 10 minutes.

Substance Abuse

  • Intercept® Oral Fluid Drug Testing System – Intercept® is an FDA-cleared oral fluid drugs of abuse test that provides a smart alternative to costly, inconvenient and often embarrassing urine drug testing.
