COVID-19
(RT-PCR - CFX96)

Specimen Nasopharyngeal Swab

PCR Result Negative


CT value
RdRP Gene Negative
N gene Negative
E gene Negative
Test performed: Qualitative Real time PCR
The assay detects the presence of 3 different gene sequences of SARS-COV2: E gene, N gene and RdRp gene.
The Lower Detection limit of the assay is 10 copies/test for each gene.

* A negative RT-PCR doesn’t exclude the possibility of COVID-19 especially if taken relatively early in the disease course or in case of
mutations within the viral genome covered by the kit’s primers and/or probes. It is recommended to follow-up with a medical health-care
provider, to continue to adhere to safety and isolation precautions, and eventually repeat testing in case of high disease suspicion. False
negative results may be due to incorrect sampling, transportation, or low viral load.

* According to WHO, careful interpretation of weak positive PCR results is needed, as the assays may produce false signals at high Ct
values. When test results are questionable, the patient should be resampled and retested (WHO interim guidance 11 sep 2020).

* All positive cases should stay home and self-isolate according to the Lebanese Ministry of Public Health Guidelines. For more info contact
their hotline at 1787.
