Introducing a New SYBR green Real-time PCR for Detection of SARS-CoV2 Virus Genome
Background and purpose: There are various methods for molecular detection of SARS-CoV2 genome among which, PCR-based methods are the most reliable for making diagnosis. The majority of approved PCR kits for detection of Coronavirus are based on TaqMan real-time PCR which is expensive due to incorporating fluorescent and quencher-harboring probe. The aim of this study was to design a simple and ...
متن کاملOptimal pooling strategies for laboratory testing
We consider the optimal strategy for laboratory testing of biological samples when we wish to know the results for each sample rather than the average prevalence of positive samples. If the proportion of positive samples is low considerable resources may be devoted to testing samples most of which are negative. An attractive strategy is to pool samples. If the pooled samples test positive one m...
متن کاملSARS‐CoV2 Neuroinvasion Potential; Narrative Review
The outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS ‐ CoV-2) in December 2019 has led to the epidemic of Covid-19. Recent clinical studies have shown that parts of the nervous system; Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are involved in SARS-CoV-2 infection, which is associated with a variety of neurological manifestations such as headache, dizziness, and olfactory and gustatory disorders. This study ...

متن کاملSerology Testing for SARS-CoV-2: Benefits and Challenges
As COVID-19 was declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) in March 2020, it is an emerging need to discuss different aspects of this pandemic. In any pandemic, valid and rapid laboratory diagnostic tests are critically important for early diagnosis, which will increase the rate of successful treatment and more importantly prevent the spread of the disease.
