June 14, 2022

Brief

Novel low-cost technology for detection of COVID-19 

Technology Overview

One of the most popular and accurate methods is the Real-Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-qPCR), which was declared by the WHO and the CDC as the “gold standard” for the detection of SARS CoV-2. In the present invention, a portable all-in-one device (RASSED)is developed using 3D printing technology to perform Reverse-Transcription Loop Mediated Isothermal Amplification in order to facilitate rapid screening of
COVID–19at the point-of-care.
