Product Description
Fast, sensitive SARS-CoV-2 detection with built-in quality checks. This Zymo Research real-time RT-PCR kit qualitatively detects viral RNA with a limit of detection as low as 15 genome copies per reaction and returns results in under 1.5 hours, supporting labs that need dependable throughput. Clear controls make every run easier to interpret.
This listing is for catalog number R3011: Quick SARS-CoV-2 rRT-PCR Kit, 100 Rxns. The assay targets the N1, N2 and N3 regions of the viral nucleocapsid gene plus human RNase P to confirm sample adequacy. CV Positive Control and No-Template Control are included to monitor performance and contamination. Purified RNA from upper or lower respiratory samples is added directly to the reagents. Setup can be automated, runs on multiple real-time PCR instruments, and is offered in 100-, 1,000- and 10,000-reaction sizes. Add it to your LIGHT LABS order and keep your bench stocked.
Key Features
- Three viral targets – detects N1, N2 and N3 regions of the SARS-CoV-2 N gene.
