Agile design and development of a high throughput cobas<sup>®</sup> SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR diagnostic test

2021-10-18

Abstract excerpt

Diagnostic testing is essential for management of the COVID-19 pandemic. An agile assay design methodology, optimized for the cobas ® 6800/8800 system, was used to develop a dual-target, qualitative SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR test using commercially available reagents and existing sample processing and thermocycling profiles. The limit of detection was 0.004 to 0.007 TCID 50 /mL for USA-WA1/2020. Assay sensitivity was conf...
