SARS-CoV-2 viral Ribonucleic Acid Reverse Transcription- Polymerase Chain Reaction ( Qualitative Detection)
MOLECULAR LABORATORY
REMARKS: Please correlate this result with clinical and radiologic data.
METHODOLOGY: Ribonucleic acid (RNA) extraction was performed, and followed by Reverse
Transcription- Polymerase Chain Reaction amplification and detection of SARS-CoV-2 viral
genome targets. Positive and negative controls are included in each run to ensure validity
and accuracy.
LIMITATIONS: The detection of viral Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is influenced by viral load
present in the sample, and thus sensitivity may vary depending on the course of the
disease. Pre-analytic variables, such as but are not limited to specimen collection and
quality, handling, and transport condition may likewise affect the results. The limit of
detection of the kit used is 200 copies/mL.
