We also offer an easy solution and process for sample testing and therefore ensure full support throughout the whole process: from sample collection to diagnosis.
The assay is performed by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR).
- The kit contains reagents that make the ultrafast PCR cycling possible in less
than 50 minutes. - Using the Cov2Quant Fast protocol, we compared the detection sensitivity of the Cov2QuantTM SARS-Cov-2 Quantification kit and two other diagnostic kits for detecting SARS-Cov-2 (Competitor Kit “GF” and “Ph”) within the same experiment. An equal amount of positive RNA sample purified with the AviRNA Viral RNA Extraction kit (IVD/CE) from a positive oropharyngeal swab sample was used. In separate PCR positive and negative controls were run for each kit.
- During the detection of the SARS-Cov-2 RdRp gene by the Competitor Kit “GF” and “Ph” the fluorescent intensity was significantly reduced by using the Cov2Quant Fast protocol. On the contrary, when the Cov2QuantTM SARS-Cov -2 Quantification Kit was applied, the fluorescent intensity was superior and both the positive sample and positive control were well detected, significantly exceeding the values obtained in the Competitor Kit “GF” and “Ph”.
- We can state that based on our most recent measurements, our PCR reagent is 7 and 10 times more sensitive than the competing diagnostic kits (GF and Ph).
