Assay for the for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein mutations, E484K, present in P.1 (Gamma) and B.1.351 (Beta), and N501Y, present in B.1.1.7(Alpha), B.1.351 (Beta) and P.1 (Gamma).
PRINCIPLE OF THE TEST:
A screening assay for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein mutations. Each mutation is
related to one specific dye: E484K (FAM) and N501Y (Cy5). The result of the melting curve does not allow to determine a specific strain or variant of SARS-CoV-2, but it shows the presence of crucial point mutations.
Suitable for open real time PCR platforms, e.g. NEOS-96 qPCR, NEOS-48 qPCR, Mic qPCR
Cycler, Bio-Rad CFX96, QuantStudio 5, LC480II
PACK SIZE:
96 test/kit
STORAGE AND STABILITY:
Stored at maximum -18°C in the dark.
Opened reagents can be stored at +2ºC -8ºC for up to 6 months.
