Bio-Rad launches SARS-CoV-2 variant RT-PCR assays
Bio-Rad Laboratories has introduced SARS-CoV-2 Variant RT-PCR Assays for research use only (RUO). The assays can detect SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern, including P.1, B.1.351, and B.1.1.7, by distinguishing specific mutations using reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) often prior to a next generation sequencing (NGS) workflow for confirmation. With the emergence of several SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern, […]
