Single N primer sufficient for SARS-CoV-2 molecular diagnosis – News-Medical.Net
There is a huge and growing demand for better molecular diagnostic tests for COVID-19, as the pandemic shows few signs of coming under control.
There is a huge and growing demand for better and more cost-effective molecular diagnostic tests for COVID-19, as the pandemic shows few signs of coming under control in the near future.
The most commonly used test is the reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR), which uses one or multiple gene targets. A new study published in the preprint medRxiv* server in December 2020 discusses the utility of using different primer sets targeting different regions of the N gene target.
