M515833 Covidtempl C Chitti Babu 011021145242
COVID RT-PCR
Condition of specimen received Good
Kit Used NeoDx Covidx mPlex -4R SARS CoV2 RTPCR kit
N-gene Negative
RdRp gene Negative
Internal quality control Pass
SARS CoV2 RNA Negative
Interpretation Guidance:
1) We only use ICMR approved screening and confirmatory kits for testing. The lower limit of detection of this assay is 100 RNA
copies/reaction
2) We test for one human gene (RNaseP) and 3 viral genes (Envelope (E), Nucleocapsid (N) and RNA Dependent RNA Polymerase
(RdRp)). A negative result indicates that N and RdRp genes were absent. As per the kit guidelines, a sample is positive if either
RdRp or N gene is positive; if both RdRp and N are positive; or if all three genes (E, RdRp and N) are positive. We do not report E
gene findings as it is not confirmatory for SARS CoV2 infection
3) A negative result implies the absence of SARS CoV-2 RNA in the sample tested.
a) Window period: It takes about 5-7 days after infection for the viral RNA to reach detectable amounts;
b) Sampling technique;
c) Prolonged Viral RNA shedding even after resolution of infection for as many as 8-10 weeks
5) The threshold for positivity for NeoDx CovidX is 35 (any Ct value less than 35 is considered positive and any Ct value above 35 is
considered negative.
