Immundiagnostik's respiratroy PCR assays MutaPLEX® Coronavirus (KG1926), MutaPLEX® RespiraScreen 1 (KG1927), MutaPLEX® RespiraScreen 2 DIFF (KG1928) and MutaPLEX® Coronavirus 4G (KG1936) were screened for the spike protein mutations in the following viral variants: [Omicron] (BA.1, BA.2, BA.4, BA.5) [Omicron] (BA.3, BA.2 + L452X) [Alpha], [Beta], [Gamma], [Delta] (all AY ...
Thermo Fisher Scientific, the world leader in serving science, today announced an update to its Applied Biosystems TaqMan SARS-CoV-2 Mutation Panel to enable direct detection of the Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variant. The panel is designed with a customizable menu of real-PCR genotyping assays to accurately identify known SARS-COV-2 variants in just over an hour. South African researchers first ...
Despite the slow evolutionary rate of SARS-CoV-2 relative to other RNA viruses, its massive and rapid transmission during the COVID-19 pandemic has enabled it to acquire significant genetic diversity since it first entered the human population. This led to the emergence of numerous variants, some of them recently being labeled “variants of concern” (VOC), due to their potential impact ...
The new Vitassay Real Time PCR allows the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 and the HV 69/70 deletion of the S gene for SARS-CoV-2 in respiratory samples. Several SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC) have emerged in the past months and monitoring them in all countries is key. The United Kingdom (UK) has detected a new variant of SARS-CoV-2 from samples initially taken in Kent on September 20th ...
Thermo Fisher Scientific, the world leader in serving science, today announced the launch of its Applied Biosystems TaqMan SARS-CoV-2 Mutation Panel, a customizable menu of 22 verified real-time PCR assays for identification of SARS-CoV-2 mutations. These assays enable surveillance of variants that are causing COVID-19 infections in specific regions globally and allow laboratories to choose which ...
Thermo Fisher Scientific announced today the availability of a new direct from saliva PCR test for COVID-19 to enable widespread, high-frequency surveillance testing. The Applied Biosystems TaqCheck SARS-CoV-2 Fast PCR Assay uses raw saliva samples and simplifies lab workflows using instruments that are widely available globally to deliver reliable data quickly. The company also introduced the ...
Worldwide calls for widespread testing has skyrocketed the amount of requests for PCR reagent supply. Current real-time PCR assays and PCR instruments consume large volume of reagents (20 μl reaction), since assays are performed in PCR tubes or array plates. ...
The current pandemic situation has created a demand for test kits that can be run with less amount of reagents while generating faster test results.Lumex Instruments’ microchip real-time PCR analyzer AriaDNA, by detecting SARS-CoV-2, has proven its ability to meet this demand. ...
ELITechGroup Molecular Diagnostics announce today the CE-IVD marking of the CRE ELITe MGB kit, a high-performance, qualitative, multiplex assay for the rapid detection of the Carbapenem Resistance genes of Enterobacteriaceae. ...
