STAT-NAT® COVID-19 MULTI

Product catalog summary

Overview: The STAT-NAT® COVID-19 MULTI kit is a lyophilized, one-step, multiplex Real-Time RT-PCR assay designed for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in human respiratory specimens. It targets the RdRP and ORF1b-nsp14 genes, crucial for identifying SARS-CoV-2 infections.

Specifications: The kit includes 6 vials, each containing a freeze-dried reaction mixture for 48 tests, allowing flexibility in test numbers. It is compatible with various PCR consumables and automatic liquid handlers. The kit uses the same fluorophore for both target genes and includes an endogenous housekeeping gene (human RNAse P) as an internal control.

Benefits: STAT-NAT® technology enhances test sensitivity, performs well across molecular biology techniques, and is environmentally sustainable with room temperature storage. It is ready-to-use, minimizing analytical variables.

Kit Components: The kit provides 288 tests and includes a dried-down positive control for performance verification. It is designed for high-volume routine testing with reconstituted solutions that can be frozen for later use.

Performance: The kit ensures reliable identification of COVID-19, avoiding false positives from other coronaviruses. It requires only two instrument channels (FAM and HEX/VIC) and delivers results in under two hours. The test is validated on human respiratory specimens and supports room temperature shipping and storage.

Procedure: The assay involves four steps: reconstituting with buffer, dispensing in tubes, adding extracted RNA, and starting amplification. The reconstituted solution can be frozen for future use.

Interpretation of Results: The test results are interpreted based on the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA and the internal control, with specific criteria for valid positive, valid negative, and invalid results.

Molecular Biology made easy! Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds. In humans, coronaviruses cause respiratory tract infections that are typically mild, such as the common cold, though strains such as SARS, MERS and SARS-CoV-2 can be lethal. The STAT-NAT® COVID-19 MULTI kit is a lyophilized, one step, multi gene, Real-Time RT-PCR qualitative assay based on nucleic acid amplification for the identification of the novel Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 RNA in human respiratory tract specimens. The kit is a multiplex assay based on the simultaneous detection of RdRP...
