High-throughput detection of SARS-CoV-2
NOTE: The products featured here are for Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostics procedures.
The SmartChip Real-Time RT-PCR SARS-CoV-2 Reagents can be combined with primers specific to SARS-CoV-2 to perform qualitative, high-throughput detection of viral RNA in upper respiratory samples using the SmartChip Real-Time PCR System. The resulting assay detects low copies of SARS-CoV-2 RNA, generally present in upper respiratory specimens during infection by the virus.
- High-sensitivity (limit of detection): 16 copies/µl
- Positive percent agreement: 96.7%
- Negative percent agreement (specificity): 100%
- Cross-reactivity: no significant cross-reactivity with related pathogens, or pathogens and normal flora likely to be found in similar samples
Overview
- Improve throughput and turnaround time—process up to 768 samples per day
- Significant cost savings—save up to 200X with nanoliter-scale reactions
- High-sensitivity—detect as low as 16 copies/µl of SARS-CoV-2 RNA without the need for a separate preamplification step
- No cross-reactivity—be confident with kit components validated to specifically detect SARS-CoV-2
