Temporary PCR laboratory for diagnostic purposes of COVID-19 coronavirus infection

About the Laboratory
Since April 1, 2020, a temporary PCR laboratory has been opened for diagnostic purposes COVID-19 coronavirus infection. PCR is the gold standard for testing the new SARS-CoV-2 virus. During the epidemic, more than 100 thousand PCR studies on COVID-19 were conducted in the laboratory. The Laboratory conducts inter-laboratory comparison tests with the reference laboratory for the control of viral infections of the branch of the SPCSEEM of the NCPHC of Almaty city, also participated in the WHO Program to assess the effectiveness of the laboratory for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 by PCR in 2020.

Laboratory services

The Laboratory also performs the following additional methods for diagnosing coronavirus infection:

  • Quantitative determination of IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 (S, N - proteins)

  • Quantitative determination of IdM antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 (S, N - proteins)

  • Qualitative determination of IgG/IgM antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 (Rapid test)

  • Quantitative determination of neutralizing antibodies to the RBD domain of SARS-CoV-2 (nCoV-Nab, post-vaccination antibodies)

  • Rapid immunochromatographic test for the determination of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus antigen

Schedule of the biomaterial sampling point for PCR testing

Monday-Saturday: 08:00am to 01:00pm, 02:00pm to 07:00pm.

Sunday is a day off.

The biomaterial collection point for PCR testing is located in block F (entrance from the street, to the left of the main entrance to the Hospital).

Analysis results

Citizens of the Republic of Kazakhstan can get the result of a PCR test on COVID-19 through a mobile application e-Presidentionalhospital.kz. The app is available for free download in the App Store and Play Market. You need to register in the application, specifying the IIN and the phone number that was named when passing the analysis. The result form contains a QR code that has the force of a signature and seal, as well as an English version.

To obtain the test result in English, it is necessary to provide a passport when passing the analysis.

Patient preparation for PCR test for diagnostic purposes of COVID-19 coronavirus infection

1. Naso-oropharyngeal swаb is taken on an empty stomach or 3 hours after the last meal. The SARS-Cov-2 coronavirus lives inside epithelial cells. For a PCR test, it is important to obtain a swab with a sufficient number of infected cells. At the time of ingestion of food, a food lump from the surface of the mucous membrane mechanically exfoliates epithelial cells. If you take a swab immediately after eating, an insufficient number of infected cells may get into the test tube.

2. You shall not use medicines for topical application (drops, sprays, etc.) in the nose and throat before taking swab. After their application, the amount of virus on the mucosa decreases and the probability of obtaining false negative PCR test results increases.

3. 3 hours before the test, it is forbidden to brush your teeth, rinse your mouth, drink and chew gum. The main goal at the stage of taking swab for PCR is to obtain biological material with a sufficient number of cells affected by coronavirus. The use of any oral cleansers reduces the amount of virus in the resulting swab.

4. Don’t drink alcohol at least 2 days before taking a swab. Alcohol contains ethyl alcohol (ethanol), which is also part of many antiseptics, so after taking alcohol, the probability of detecting coronavirus in a swab may also decrease.
