dc.description.abstract | The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has kept the whole world on a halt. Even after two years of
emergence, we could not contain the infection due to its highly transmittable nature. Early and
fast detection of the causative SARS-CoV-2 virus is necessary to take proper steps to isolate
the patient and/or medications on time. RT-PCR is the most conventional diagnostic method to
detect SARS-CoV-2 that requires appropriate samples as well as trained resources for smooth
operation. Most importantly, a longer turnaround time remains a major challenge on the way
to mass testing for SARS-CoV-2. The newly developed fast PCR techniques eliminate several
limitations ofthe previous RT-PCR, capable of detecting SARS-CoV-2 from the patient sample
within 30 minutes. This study focuses on two fast PCR instruments Cobas Liat and MIC qPCR
to assess the success, necessity, and challenges of the fast PCR methods for intervening in the
pandemic. | en_US |
