As the pandemic has progressed and test manufacturers have become more experienced with SARS-CoV-2 test development, multiplex testing has become an option. The multiplex assay—an immunoassay test able to measure multiple analytes in a single test—is certainly not new in itself. In 1989, R. Ekins developed the ambient analyte theory, which stated that miniaturizing an immunoassay can lead to an improved limit of detection (LOD). That work influenced the future development of microarray multiplex technology principles.<ref name="TigheELISA15">{{Cite journal |last=Tighe |first=Patrick J. |last2=Ryder |first2=Richard R. |last3=Todd |first3=Ian |last4=Fairclough |first4=Lucy C. |date=2015-04 |title=ELISA in the multiplex era: Potentials and pitfalls |url=https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/prca.201400130 |journal=PROTEOMICS – Clinical Applications |language=en |volume=9 |issue=3-4 |pages=406–422 |doi=10.1002/prca.201400130 |issn=1862-8346 |pmc=PMC6680274 |pmid=25644123}}</ref> By 2013, development of multiplex protein immunoassays was becoming increasingly prominent.<ref name="TigheELISA15" />

Multiplexing provides a variety of benefits for laboratories and patients. In their 2015 paper on ELISA and multiplex technologies, Tighe ''et al'' find that multiplexed immunoassays have the potential to decrease diagnosis times and reduce assay costs. "At the same time, such multiplexing offers more comprehensive analysis whether for research purposes, differential diagnoses, or monitoring of therapeutic interventions."<ref name="TigheELISA15" /> They also note the potential for improved health surveillance of patients, catching early-onset diseases by looking for informative biomarkers.<ref name="TigheELISA15" /> From the perspective of diagnosing infections of SARS-CoV-2 or influenza, the CDC adds that multiplexing helps preserve testing supplies that may be in short supply, conduct more tests in a given time period, and paint a clearer picture of both viruses and their prevalence in a given population.<ref name="CDCInflu21">{{cite web |url=https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/lab/multiplex.html |title=CDC’s Influenza SARS-CoV-2 Multiplex Assay and Required Supplies |author=Centers for Disease Control and Prevention |publisher=Centers for Disease Control and Prevention |date=13 July 2021 |accessdate=19 September 2021}}</ref>
