With a continuing need for at-home testing kits across the nation, MaximBio has engaged CVI to start assembling ClearDetect™ COVID-19 Antigen Home Test Kits at CVI's facility in Newport News, VA , with production expected to start in early May.
On January 19 , Maxim Biomedical (MaximBio) received Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to produce and distribute their new ClearDetect™ COVID-19 Antigen Home Test (ClearDetect™).
Jonathan Maa, Chief Operating Officer at MaximBio, noted that "Canon Virginia is a uniquely qualified manufacturing partner for MaximBio, with experience in a range of industries, including medical.
