OPTI Medical Systems has obtained US FDA Emergency Use Authorization and CE marking for its OPTI* SARS-CoV-2/Influenza A/B RT-PCR Test for identification and differentiation of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B RNA.
This respiratory panel distinguishes between SARS-CoV-2, influenza A and influenza B extracted from nasopharyngeal swabs. Use of this test is ideal for identifying the cause of symptoms during influenza season.
Distinguish between COVID-19 and flu
Multiplexed detection and differentiation of three viruses simultaneously.
Validated on common PCR instruments: Applied Biosystems* 7500, QuantStudio* 5, Roche LightCycler* 480 II, Bio-Rad CFX96 Touch*, Bio Molecular Systems Mic qPCR Cycler.
Detection of two different targets in the N coding region of SARS-CoV-2, avoiding the S mutations found in recent variants.
Monitoring of new variants of SARS-CoV-2 to ensure the test is not impacted by viral mutations.
Optimized workflow from start to finish using an internal sample control targeting human RNase P.
Combine this test with the OPTI* DNA/RNA Magnetic Bead Kit for a complete solution.
