Detection of SARS-CoV-2 in Different Human Biofluids Using the Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Assay: A Prospective Diagnostic Study in Fortaleza, Brazil
2022-01-24
Abstract excerpt
We adopted the reverse transcriptase - loop mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) to detect SARS-Cov-2 in patient samples. Two primer sets for genes N and Orf1ab were designed to detect SARS-CoV-2, and one primer set was designed to detect the human gene Actin .
