SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) N gene [Presence] in Specimen by NAA with probe detection

SARS-CoV-2 N gene Spec Ql NAA+probe

Definition

Qualitative detection of nucleic acids within the nucleoprotein (N) gene of SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in various specimens, including lower & upper respiratory, serum, stool or urine, by nucleic acid amplification with probe-based detection. Various assays have been developed that contain primer-probe sets targeting N gene. [https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/technical-guidance/laboratory-guidance] If using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) SARS-CoV-2 (2019-nCoV) assay, use the codes specific for the target 1 (N1) [LOINC: 94307-6] and target 2 (N2) [LOINC: 94308-4] primer-probe sets for the N gene developed by CDC.[CDC: coronavirus/COVID-19/lab/] The N3 target in the CDC assay is specific for SARS-like Coronavirus [LOINC: 94310-0].
