Advancing in vitro diagnostic
RT-PCR SARS-CoV-2
Diagnostic Kits
Key Parameters
- More than 6 million tests performed
- Czech development and production
- Ultra-sensitive analysis (LOD 1 virus copy)
- Validated for diagnosis from nasopharyngeal swabs and saliva
- 4 kit versions – enables optimal choice for every lab
- 2 detection methods: standard RT-PCR and DBdirect™ (direct RT-PCR without RNA isolation)
- 2 multiplex designs: they differ in the detected genes and in the possibility of differentiating virus variants
- Suitable for manual and automated sample processing
Genes detected SARS-CoV-2

*optional detection when using primer additive
**synthetic RNA which is added to the test sample isolation or directly to the RT-PCR
***synthetic RNA which is added to the sample in the DBdirect™ RT-PCR reaction
Features
- Kits for detection in 3 to 5 channels
- Primer additives for determining α, β, γ, δ, ο variants with DB-1211 and DB-1219 kits
- Thorough in silico development – an in-house bioinformatics analysis of all available SARS-CoV-2 genomes with regular monitoring of mutation occurrence
- Compatible with most RT-PCR devices
