Detection of B.1.1.7 Lineage of SARS-CoV-2 by RT-qPCR (CAT#: STEM-MT-0041-LGZ)

Introduction

The recently discovered new SARS-CoV-2 variant VOC (2012012/01) has a higher transmissibility rate and a 0.4 higher reproduction number than other variants. The increase of this new variant can now be determined by RT-qPCR.




Principle

Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) is an experimental method applied to PCR experiments using RNA as the starting material. In this method, total or messenger RNA (mRNA) is first transcribed into complementary DNA (cDNA) by reverse transcriptase. Subsequently, qPCR reaction was performed using cDNA as template.

Applications

SARS-CoV-2

Procedure

1. Sample processing and preparation of PCR reaction system.
2. Add the amplification template, cover the PCR reaction cover, mix well, centrifuge at low speed instantaneously, and transfer to the PCR instrument.
3. Set the program for PCR amplification.
4. Data analysis.

Materials

Sample: depends on the customer's analysis requirements
