Testing for Active Infection with SARS-CoV-2 by Detection of Viral RNA
CeGaT offers tests for the detection of the SARS-CoV-2 pathogen: The coronavirus test verifies suspicions of infection with the novel coronavirus. Furthermore, under certain conditions, certificates of a negative corona test are required, e.g., in the context of an upcoming journey.
For the test, swabs from the nasopharynx are taken and examined for viral RNA, using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technology. The method multiplies the genetic material of the virus to such an extent that even the smallest amounts of the virus can be detected, and an infection can be diagnosed early in the course of the disease.
Price EUR 65,- (if you live outside Germany, the amount must be paid directly on-site)

Data entry
To speed up the process at the Corona test stations and to reduce waiting times, we ask you to enter your data before visiting the test station. To do this, enter all the required data in the predefined form. After completing the data entry, you will receive a QR code, which you will need for on-site registration. If you are using a mobile device for data entry, you can simply save the barcode you receive and show it during registration. If you are using a different device for data entry, the barcode must be printed out in advance and be brought to the test center. Your data will only be used to generate a QR code and will not be saved.

For Companies and Larger Groups: Mobile Coronavirus Test
For companies who would like their employees to have access to coronavirus tests, we now offer a mobile testing service: Our medical staff comes to you and takes the swabs quickly and professionally on site. The results are available the next day and can be viewed online by the persons tested. This service can also be requested by larger groups.
Key Facts
- Price EUR 65,- per sample (if you live outside Germany, the amount must be paid directly on-site)
- Required sample material: Nasopharyngeal swab. CeGaT performs the swabs on its premises in Tübingen starting October 01.
- The results will be available the next day and can be seen in a secure portal. Positive findings will be communicated immediately by phone and – according to the respective regulations – reported to the public health department.
Passport Number/ID Card Number and Timestamp
From now on, we have the possibility to print passport numbers on the medical reports. This is particularly important for travel abroad. If you come to CeGaT to have the swab performed, please bring a copy of your passport with you. In this case, the time of swab collection will be noted on the report. Copy of the passport means the laminated page with the photo.
Please note: Subsequent changes are not possible. Passport numbers/ID card numbers must be entered manually. Thus, it may happen that your first report does not contain these numbers. We will process this promptly and therefore kindly ask for your patience.

- Persons who have to undergo testing as ordered by the public health department
- Persons who have had contact with an infected person and therefore have a received a quarantine order from a local police authority
