PCR based test is the gold standard for detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection. The kit is based on the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), amplifying two target sequences on the viral ORF1ab and N genes, as recommended by both China and U.S. CDC. By monitoring the reaction signal in real-time and comparing with a cut-off Ct value, the virus can be detected qualitatively.
The kit contains all necessary components for the rRT-PCR assay as well as a positive and a negative template control for quality control.
● Two target sequences detected in one tube: Open Reading Frame 1ab (ORF1ab) & SARS-CoV-2 N gene
●Stable amplification with good repeatability
●Positive and Negative template control for quality assurance
