Detection
Profile
-
Assay SNPsig® SARS-CoV-2 (20I/501Y.V1) detects 20I/501Y.V1 (UK).
-
Assay SNPsig® SARS-CoV-2 (20H/501Y.V2) detects 20H/501Y.V2 (SA).
-
Assay SNPsig® SARS-CoV-2 (N501Y) detects variants with the N501Y mutation (UK, SA and Brazil).
Important
Benefits
This assay offers the ability to track variants on-site and to generate a result in hours, compared to the current approach of next generation sequencing, which is typically constrained by limited capacity, cost and an offsite multi-day turnaround. This assay enables the identification of the non-variant virus and the UK, South Africa or Brazil variants, as well as any variant carrying the N501Y mutation.
