CoV2Ag Nasopharyngeal swab determination
It depends on how the characters are laid out on the page, but if the source text layout is as shown, it may be that the two characters 判 and 定 are supposed to be read in combination vertically. "判定" ("determination/assessment") is commonly used to describe the result of a COVID 19 test. Therefore 判定 here refers to the result from one or more nasopharyngeal swabs.
Example sentence:
IgG、IgMいずれかが陽性であれば陽性と判定
新型コロナウイルスがいるかどうかが判定できる、という検査です。
Note from asker:
Thank you for your kind assistance. I was able to get the original file from the client. The layout format is table, with the entries listed as follows under the heading of 検査名: CoV2Ag (鼻咽頭) 外 CoV2Ag (鼻咽頭)判 CoV2Ag (鼻咽頭)判 So, I don't think this would typically be read vertically, although I suppose it could be here. Does this provide any further clarification? Thank you! |

(It looks like 定 is not included in the source text in your follow-up.)
This might be a reference as to whether the tests were valid or not.

CoV2Ag (Nasopharyngeal swab) Valid [i.e. determination made]
