PrimePath Direct Saliva SARS-CoV-2 Detection Kit
PrimePath Direct Saliva SARS-CoV-2 Detection Kit is a research-use-only, complete kit for detecting SARS-CoV-2 directly from saliva specimens without the need for any DNA/RNA extraction. The workflow has been thoroughly formulated to ensure safe sample handling, reduce hands-on time, and deliver faster, more sensitive results.
PrimePath Direct Saliva SARS-CoV-2 Detection Kit is a research-use-only, complete kit for detecting SARS-CoV-2 directly from saliva specimens without the need for any DNA/RNA extraction. The workflow has been thoroughly formulated to ensure safe sample handling, reduce hands-on time, and deliver faster, more sensitive results.
The kit contains all components required to collect the saliva specimens and run the RT-qPCR detection assay, including our high-performance One-Step PrimeScript III RT-qPCR Kit (Cat. # RR600A). This assay is based on primers and probes designed and published by the CDC.
Overview
- Complete kit—all components needed for the user to perform SARS-CoV-2 detection are included (except the qPCR instrument). The kit includes our high-performance One Step PrimeScript III RT-PCR Kit for a simple setup. The in vitro-transcribed (IVT) PrimePath SARS-CoV-2 Positive Control is validated using ddPCR and comprises exact copies of the target RNA sought by the CDC-designed primers and probes in this assay.
- Easier, safer sample collection and handling—PrimePath Saliva Collection Kit provides unique collection sticks for easy capture of saliva samples. Additionally, the kit comes with a buffer that inactivates SARS-CoV-2 once the saliva sample is dissolved, making it safer for handling and transportation.
- Faster results—no DNA/RNA extraction is necessary. A total qPCR assay detecting SARS-CoV-2 can be completed in <30 minutes.
