DirectDetect^™ SARS-CoV-2 Real-time RT-PCR for Environmental Surfaces

The DirectDetect^™ SARS-CoV-2 Real-time RT-PCR kit for Environmental Surfaces offers an efficient workflow eliminating the need for an extraction and heat lysis step. The simplified process can move from sample directly to PCR giving a broader range of customers the ability to perform environmental surface tests. The DirectDetect^™ SARS-CoV-2 Direct Real-time RT-PCR kit assay uses reverse transcription of SARS-CoV-2 RNA, DNA amplification, and fluorescence detection to determine if a surface is contaminated with SARS-CoV-2 targeting specific genomic regions of SARS-CoV-2: nucleocapsid (N) gene and open reading frame 1ab (ORF1ab) gene. This kit includes 96 tests.
