Massive and rapid COVID-19 testing is feasible by extraction-free SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR

2020-04-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The most widely used method of COVID-19 diagnostics is a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay, to detect the presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in patient samples, typically from nasopharyngeal swabs. RNA extraction is a major bottleneck in current COVID-19 testing,...
