Abstract excerpt
High-resolution melting (HRM) analysis is a PCR-based method that can be used as a screening assay to identify SARS-CoV-2 variants. However, conventional HRM assays hardly detect slight melting temperature differences at the A-T to T-A transversion. As the N501Y substitution results from A-T to T-A transversion in A23063, few or no studies have shown that a conventional HRM assay can identify N501Y variants. This...
