Advanced PCR-based COVID-19 test design for NPS and nasal swabs using RNase P, to detect infections in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients
Features of the TaqPath COVID-19 RNase P Combo Kit 2.0:
- Human sample confirmation—the RNase P gene serves as an endogenous control to help ensure sample integrity, quality, and extraction
- Innovative, multi-target assay design—multiple targets on orf1a, orf1b, and N genes compensate for emerging SARS-CoV-2 mutations, helping provide increased confidence in results
- Sensitive detection for symptomatic or asymptomatic cases—PCR-based test detects active infections from individuals suspected of having COVID-19 by their health care provider as well as asymptomatic individuals; 75 GCE/mL LOD
- Affordable and scalable—add to your existing COVID-19 test options using some of the most widely used PCR systems in the world
