The Need
- Rapidly detect SARS-CoV-2, including emerging variants, to provide timely, effective triage
- Increase workflow efficiencies with minimal hands-on time
The Solution
The Xpert Xpress CoV-2 plus test provides:
- Fast and accurate results in as early as 20 minutes*
- Three gene targets for SARS-CoV-2 as well as an optimization of SARS-CoV-2 probes to enable more realizable virus detection
- Rapid sample-to-answer testing with actionable results from a single sample
*With early assay termination for positives, otherwise, the full test runtime is 30 minutes.
The Impact
- Offers healthcare providers lab-quality results in a test that can be performed at the point of care
- Supports clinicians with broader coverage for SARS-CoV-2 variants with a three-gene design
- Enables hospitals to effectively manage limited resources with our single-cartridge technology and easy-to-use workflow

Frequently Asked Questions
Cepheid developed the Xpert® Xpress CoV-2 plus test with several enhancements compared to the Xpert® Xpress SARS-CoV-2. Key enhancements include:
- The addition of a 3rd gene target for SARS-CoV-2 (RdRP now included in addition to E and N2), to be more robust against mutations
- Improved Time to Result (TTR) at about 30 minutes
- Expansion of on-label transport media options to include the addition of eNAT®
Sample Types:
GeneXpert Dx and Infinity Systems: Nasopharyngeal swab and anterior nasal swab in 3mL of viral transport media (UTM/VTM), 3mL of Saline, or 2mL of eNAT, from individuals meeting COVID-19 clinical and/or epidemiological criteria, as well as individuals without symptoms or other reasons to suspect COVID-19 infection.
Viral transport media are available from several commercial vendors who may use the terminology VTM (Viral Transport Medium) or UTM (Universal Transport Medium). Any brand meeting the guidelines for VTM/UTM can be used. UTM, VTM, Saline, and eNAT are on label.
- SARS-Related Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) External Run Control, Catalog# NATSARS(COV2)-ERC
- SARS Associated Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Negative Control, Catalog# NATSARS(COV2)-NEG
