Correspondence from The New England Journal of Medicine — Detection of SARS-CoV-2 with SHERLOCK One-Pot Testing
CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)based diagnostic tests1,2 collectively provide a nascent platform for the detection of viral and bacterial pathogens. Methods such as SHERLOCK (specific high-sensitivity enzymatic reporter unlocking), which typically use a two-step process (target amplification followed by CRISPR-mediated nucleic acid detection),1,2 have been used to detect SARS-CoV-2.3 These approaches, however, are more complex than those used in point-of-care t…
