Abstract
In this webinar, our speakers will provide an introduction into the epidemiology of SARS CoV 2, influenza A/B, and RSV, explaining why it is important to detect and differentiate all three viruses in a single test. We will introduce the workflow and performance of our CE-IVD-certified Applied Biosystems™ TaqPath™ COVID 19, Flu A/B, RSV Combo Kit, a multiplex PCR test that can detect and differentiate between SARS CoV 2, influenza A/B and RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus). The TaqPath COVID 19, Flu A/B, RSV Combo Kit has a sample to results turnaround time of approximately 3 hours and supports testing of up to 94 samples in parallel.
Learning objectives:
- Explain the importance of simultaneous testing of SARS CoV 2 and other respiratory viruses, especially during flu season
- Assess the approved workflow of a molecular diagnostic test for COVID 19, influenza, and RSV
- Evaluate performance data of the TaqPath COVID 19, Flu A/B, RSV Combo Kit
Prepare for the next influenza season and equip your lab with an accurate, affordable, scalable, and highly sensitive multiplex PCR test. Find out more about the TaqPath COVID 19, Flu A/B, RSV Combo Kit >>
