Article Synopsis
- India has a significant burden of SARS-CoV-2 infection, with various RT-PCR detection methods leading to potential reporting delays and management issues.
- A new Viroselect RT-PCR assay was developed targeting a specific region in the virus's ORF1a gene, demonstrating high concordance with existing diagnostic tests.
- In tests of 701 samples, Viroselect showed an agreement of up to 87.6% with manual assays and successfully resolved inconclusive results in nearly all cases evaluated, indicating its promise for improved diagnostic reliability.
