Highly accurate and sensitive diagnostic detection of SARS-CoV-2 by digital PCR

2020-03-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>BACKGROUND</h4> The outbreak of COVID-19 caused by a novel Coronavirus (termed SARS-CoV-2) has spread to over 140 countries around the world. Currently, reverse transcription quantitative qPCR (RT-qPCR) is used as the gold standard for diagnostics of SARS-CoV-2. However, the positive rate of RT-qPCR assay of pharyngeal swab samples are reported to vary from 30∼60%. More accurate and sensitive methods are urgen...
