MOLECULAR LABORATORY
TEST INFORMATION:
The SARs CoV2 Real Time Detection Test is used for identification and detection of known genes of novel corona virus
(SARs CoV2) in nasopharyngeal swab, oropharyngeal swab, ETA & sputum specimens using reverse transcription
(RT) real time PCR. This test is helpful for the auxillary diagnosis of 2019 novel corona virus disease (COVID-19).
LIMITATIONS:
The detection of viral RNA is dependent on the viral load and may vary if the specimen was collected very early in the infection.
Pre-analytical variables (specimen quality, handling & transport condition) may also affect the results. Limit of detection is 100
copies/ml.
NOTE:
This report must be interpreted by your attending physician in correlation with the patient's pertinent clinical and ancillary findings.
