To ensure future-proof detection of SARS-CoV-2, we developed a novel assay kit covering six targets across four genomic regions (ORF1ab, ORF3a, ORF7a and N gene) of the virus. Using multiple targets in multiple regions increases the likelihood of successful detection.
Probes are coupled to different dyes and can be measured in the FAM, ROX and Cy5 channels on a cycler of your choice.
This kit can be used in combination with the QIAprep& Viral RNA UM Kit chemistry and SARS-CoV-2 Neo Positive Control to provide fast and easy detection. Sample types compatible for detecting SARS-CoV-2 include nasal, nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal swabs, lolly (lollipop swab), saliva, and gargles.
