Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of virus detection, and in particular relates to a droplet digital PCR kit for nucleic acid detection of novel coronavirus and its application. Background technique
[0002] Coronavirus is a type of RNA virus with an envelope and a linear single-stranded positive strand genome, with a diameter of about 80-120nm. Currently, it only infects humans, mice, pigs, cats, dogs, and poultry vertebrates. The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has been confirmed as a new variant, which can cause viral pneumonia, with fever and dry cough in mild cases, dyspnea and even shock in severe cases. The method widely used in the market to detect the current novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is the method of nucleic acid extraction and purification followed by quantitative PCR. Its detection sensitivity is limited, and it is easily inhibited by different chemical substances from the patient's body in the sample, thereby affecting the dete...
