SARS-CoV-2 detection kit
The SARS-CoV-2 Test Kit is a tool for the detection of a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2).
Usage usually involves collecting a sample (e.g., nasopharyngeal swab, oropharyngeal swab, etc.), mixing the sample with the reagents in the kit, and then performing the test operation according to the instructions in the kit.
Specific applications are mainly in medical diagnosis, outbreak surveillance, and mass screening to help quickly determine whether or not a person is infected with a novel coronavirus.
Its features include high sensitivity and specificity, capable of accurately detecting the presence of the virus; and relatively easy operation, suitable for different testing scenarios.
The SARS-CoV-2 test kit is based on the following principles:
Nucleic Acid Test: Detects the presence or absence of the virus by examining the RNA (ribonucleic acid) of the virus. Commonly used methods include real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (polymerase chain reaction) technology.
Antigen detection: Detects specific antigens on the surface of the virus to determine whether it is infected.
Antibody testing: Detects antibodies produced by the body against SARS-CoV-2, including IgM and IgG antibodies, to see if the body has been infected with the virus.
