Highly sensitive and specific detection of the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant by double-mismatch allele-specific PCR

2021-10-13

Abstract excerpt

The highly transmissible Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 (B.1.617.2), first identified in India, is currently replacing pre-existing variants in Europe, the USA, and many other parts of the world. It is essential to monitor efficiently its spread to help guide public health policies. Genome sequencing is the gold standard for identification of Delta, but is time-consuming, expensive, and unavailable in many regions. W...
