SARS

The PCR reagents have been designed to amplify low copy numbers of templates containing nucleic acid sequences typically found in SARS-CoV-2. Along with all components required for amplification, the reagents include fluorescence probes to measure amplicon formation with a suitable real time PCR instrument.

• Sampling Control
  A separate non-competitive amplification system detecting human genomic DNA enables the monitoring of the sampling quality. Positive results for RNase P indicate that sampling has been carried out with sufficient thoroughness, and thus allows reducing false negative results due to insufficient sample collection.
• Dual target design
  Our assay design enables high sensitivity and robustness by amplification and detection of two independent SARS-CoV-2 genomic sequences.
• Amplicon contamination control
  The use of Uracil-N-Glycosylase (UNG) and dUTP is a sophisticated and acknowledged concept to avoid amplicon contamination in the PCR laboratory. Processing a lot of positive samples through PCR without contamination control could pose a serious risk to laboratory workflows.

SARS CoV-2 PCR Reagent Kit

• The kit contains primer/probes and an enzyme-mix to amplify the ORF1ab and N-Gene and the human RNase P sequences.
• It can be used in combination with commercial extraction methods.
• It can be used with a variety of modern commercial real time thermo cyclers.
• The 25 µl PCR ensures amplification of low copy numbers of templates.
• PCR product cross contaminations are suppressed by the use of UNG.
