COVID-19 detection with Omicron
We, at Erba Mannheim, are dedicated to monitoring our ErbaMDX SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR assay against any emerging variants and genomic databases. Based on our latest experimental assessment of the Omicron variant, we have confirmed that our assay reliably detects SARS-CoV-2 in samples containing this new variant.
"The Erba Mannheim SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR Kit has been experimentally tested with Omicron RNA to confirm that its functional performance is unaffected by any of the mutations in Omicron"
