-新的冠状病毒:新的检测试剂盒-

岛津:

4月20日,我们发布了“新型冠状病毒检测试剂盒”。

当将其用于检查唾液PCR试验的准确性时,可以获得与鼻咽拭子相当的结果。

唾液的PCR测试:

关于使用唾液的测试,日本医学会向我们建议。

北海道大学医院的合作,以进行实际准确性评估。

北海道大学医院:

在北海道大学医院,将在手术过程中检查住院患者是否有新的冠状病毒感染。

筛选试验暂采用唾液PCR试验。

增加了新试剂盒的生产:

自4月20日发布以来,Shimadzu已提供了超过200,000个样本(2000个试剂盒)的试剂盒。

最初,我们宣布每月有100,000个样品(1000套)。

我们还将报告说,产量已增加到300,000个样品(3000套)。

注意:

该试剂盒是研究试剂。

根据《药品和医疗设备法》,该药尚未被批准为体外诊断药。

要使用该套件,您需要诸如PCR仪,移液管,恒温浴,小型离心机和样品/基因处理技术之类的设备。

因此,我们不打算出售给零售店,例如药店或个人。

SHIMADZU CORPORATION :

Release of the “2019 Novel Coronavirus Detection Kit” Reduces labor and halves detection time

Shimadzu Corporation is announcing the release of its “2019 Novel Coronavirus Detection Kit”, with sales beginning on 20th April.

For the time being the kits will only be available in Japan, but preparations are underway to export these kits overseas from May onwards.

Current PCR methods for the detection of the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2)

require the labor-intensive steps of RNA extraction and purification from samples collected via nasopharyngeal swabs or similar. This presents an obstacle to rapid detection when dealing with large numbers of samples.

This detection kit

eliminates the steps of RNA extraction and purification, significantly reducing the amount of work required to prepare samples,

and moreover halves the overall time required for PCR detection from over 2 hours to approximately 1 hour.

When using a PCR device with the capacity for 96 samples,

the workflow for all 96 samples can be completed within 1.5 hours.

In addition, the omission of manual RNA extraction reduces the risk of human error.
