The Plex Prime® SARS-CoV-2 Genotyping* product line has rapidly expanded since launching in July, utilising the company’s unique universal substrate approach and patented multiplexing technology.

“Rapid screening of positive samples with a PCR-based approach allows laboratories to easily monitor mutations as they circulate” said Dr Charles Cartwright, SpeeDx Senior Vice President of Clinical Affairs. “The individual mutations targeted with our suite of genotyping reagents have been carefully chosen to represent key lineage divergence, thus we are finding that even the latest emerging variants of interest and concern can be targeted for further analysis with our existing portfolio.”
Plex Prime® SARS-CoV-2 L452Q Lambda* is a single well mix designed to detect the L452Q spike mutation of SARS-CoV-2 found in the C.37 variant of interest (Lambda)1 , in addition to an RdRp gene target of SARS-CoV-2. This reagent is the third product in the Plex Prime® SARS-CoV-2 Genotyping portfolio and can be used as a stand-alone reflex or combined with Plex Prime® SARS-CoV-2 Alpha/Beta/Gamma+, and/or the Plex Prime® P681R Delta reagents. Compatible with standard qPCR and liquid handling instrumentation, the Plex Prime® SARS-CoV-2 Genotyping will reduce the costs and manual processes for laboratories currently practicing high-volume sequence analysis.
