This app is designed to register the self-sampling kits you have purchased and to securely and personally report the results of the laboratory analyses to you. A list of available tests can be found on our website. You can order our self-sampling kits at any time via our website. After receiving the kit, you can collect a sample yourself using clear instructions and send it completely anonymously to the laboratory. The samples are analyzed in an ISO 15189-certified laboratory, and the test results are accompanied by comments from a BIG-registered medical microbiologist. The samples are tested in the same way as in a regular hospital laboratory. The results are communicated to you through this secure and personal app. Disclaimer: This app is not intended as a substitute for professional medical advice. Always consult a doctor in case of an emergency and discuss the results of our medical tests with your physician before making any medical decisions.
