2019-Novel Coronavirus, Influenza A and B Virus Nucleic Acid Test Kit
This kit is intended for the qualitative detection of ORF1ab gene of 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV, SARS-COV-2), M1 gene of influenza A virus (IFA), and NS1 gene of influenza B virus (IFB) in the specimens including nasopharyngeal swab, throat swabs, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, saliva, and sputum.
The novel coronaviruses belong to the β genus. COVID-19 is an acute respiratory infectious disease. People are generally susceptible. Currently, the patients infected by the novel coronavirus are the main source of infection; asymptomatic infected people can also be infectious. Based on the current epidemiological investigation, the incubation period is 1 to 14 days, mostly 3 to 7 days. The main manifestations include fever, fatigue, and dry cough. Nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat, myalgia, and diarrhea are found in a few cases.
Influenza is a kind of highly acute respiratory infectious disease caused by the infection of influenza virus, it can be sudden onset and rapidly spread in a short term, resulting in different degrees of prevalence, with a high incidence rate and a certain mortality rate. The symptoms caused by influenza A and B virus are similar. The most obvious characteristics are acute high fever and cough.
