A team of scientists from the United States has recently developed a single-tube duplex molecular assay for rapid detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants containing E484K and N501Y spike mutations. The assay takes only 2.5 hours to identify viral variants from nasopharyngeal samples. A detailed description of the assay method is currently available on the medRxiv* preprint server.
