The New SARS-CoV-2 variant OMICRON B1.1.529

DIA.PRO constantly verifies the effect of new SARS-CoV-2 variants on our COVID-19 PCR test

(code: COV19RNALYO.CE)

         

Based on our analysis, the “COV19RNALYO.CE” kit (fully developed and manufactured by DIA.PRO in Italy), maintains its performances and fully preserves the capability to detect this variant OMICRON B1.1.529with 100% sensitivity and specificity and the same efficiency of other lineages; thanks to the specific Primers/Probes assay design, targeting low mutating sequences of the SARS-Cov-2 Virus Genome and according to the in silico analysis on currently available worldwide sequences.

Particularly, our COV19RNALYO.CE test is among many others fully guaranteed & detects the following most common variants currently in circulation:

Alpha B.1.1.7, originated in the United Kingdom

Beta B.1.351, originated in South Africa

Delta B.1.617.2, originated in India

Gamma P.1, originated in Brazil

Lambda C.37, originated in Peru

Omicron B.1.1.529, originated in South Africa.
