Mutation-specific SARS-CoV-2 PCR Screen: Rapid and Accurate Detection of Variants of Concern and the Identification of a Newly Emerging Variant with Spike L452R Mutation

2021-04-22

Abstract excerpt

The emergence of more transmissible and/or more virulent SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs) has triggered intensive genomic surveillance, which is costly and difficult to sustain operationally over the long-term. To address this problem, we developed a set of four multiplex mutation-specific PCR-based assays with same-day reporting that can detect five VOCs and three variants of interest (VOIs), as defined in t...
