Notes
Information provided by the manufacturer: 2019-nCoV TaqMan RT-PCR Kit Dx provides SARS-CoV-2 detection based on the assays and protocols developed by the CDC. The kit utilizes RT-PCR for the amplification of specific target sequences and target specific probes for the detection of the amplified cDNA. The Primer & Probe Mixes contain all 3 CDC developed assays in individual tubes where probes are labelled with the fluorophore FAM. All assays are premixed to the working concentrations recommended by the CDC. The Positive Control contains two nCoV nucleocapsid target gene RNA (N1 and N2) and RNase P (internal control). The kit contains a positive control to monitor for PCR inhibition, and to validate the quality of the sample and the detection result. The 2019-nCoV TaqMan RT-PCR Kit Dx comprises Master Mix for the target and PCR control detection, 3 target Primer & Probe Mixes, as well as a positive control and a negative control (nuclease-free water) to confirm the integrity of the kit reagents.
