COVID-19 PCR Kits

PCR Tests for SARS-CoV-2

RayBiotech's innovative PCR kits allow rapid, convenient detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acids. Our protocols offer unique advantages, such as enabling the researcher to skip laborious RNA extraction, or to avoid PCR machines entirely, and detect the virus by visual color inspection.

SARS-CoV-2 contains RNA. Methods that amplify these nucleic acids are used by PCR kits to detect this coronavirus.

Rapid Isothermal PCR Kit

RT-LAMP

RayBiotech's COVID-19 Rapid Isothermal PCR Kit utilizes the RT-LAMP (reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification) method for the qualitative in vitro detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid. Results are read by eye within 30 minutes without the need for an expensive PCR instrument. The sensitivity is as low as 25 copies/µl of the virus. For increased stability, this kit contains reagents to reduce DNA carry-over contamination. It is also the only pH-independent kit on the market.

Product Features

  • Rapid
  • Affordable
  • Easy to use
  • Sensitive
  • Stable
COVID19 RT-LAMP detection vials containing blue or pink liquid for colorometric readout
Colorimetric detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA. The presence of SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA results in a color change from purple to blue.

1-Step High Throughput PCR Kit for Saliva and Swabs

RT-PCR

RayBiotech's COVID-19 1-Step High Throughput PCR Kit utilizes the RT-PCR (reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction) method for the in vitro detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid in saliva or nasal swab samples. The unique 1-Step Nucleic Acid Stabilization Buffer preps crude saliva or nasal swabs for use directly in the PCR reaction, without laborious RNA extraction steps. The sensitivity of this assay can detect as few as 4 copies/µL of SARS-CoV-2 virus. Only needing the green channel, this PCR kit can be used with a wide range of PCR instruments.

Product Features

  • No sample prep
  • Sensitive
  • Green channel only
  • CDC-approved primers
  • LDT ready
