CE/IVD Marked Product
Research Service
The QuantiVirus™ SARS-CoV-2 Test Kit is based on Real-Time PCR technology, developed for specific detection of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) viral RNA extracted from nasopharyngeal swabs, oropharyngeal swabs and sputum. The analytical sensitivity is 100 copies per mL of SARS-CoV-2 viral with a 95% confidence.

How Does the QuantiVirus™ SARS-CoV-2 Test Kit Work?
The assay is a multiplex rRT-PCR assay consisting of one reaction with primers and probes for the viral targets (Orf1ab, N and E genes) and internal control in one tube thus with increased assay throughput and ease of use and other advantages as a multiplex assay.
The Orf1ab, N, and E genes of the SARS-CoV-2 genome are targeted in the rRT-PCR assay. Primers and TaqMan probes designed for conserved regions of the SARS- CoV-2 virus genome allow specific amplification and detection of the viral RNA from all strains of SARS-CoV-2 from respiratory specimens. The Human RNase P gene is used as Internal control to monitor viral RNA extraction efficiency and assess amplifiable RNA in the samples to be tested.
