Isothermal amplification PCR in 30 minutes for saliva specimens
Let's return to normal
ender EASY is an in-vitro diagnostic test kit based on a rapid molecular isothermal nucleic acid amplification technology.
ender EASY is reliably detecting the mutants from UK (20I/501Y.V1, B.1.1.7), South Africa (20H/501Y.V2, B.1.351) and Brazil (20J/501Y.V3, P.1).
It is intended for the qualitative detection of nucleic acid ORF-1a gene sequence from the SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA in saliva samples collected in the omnigene® oral (OME-505) collection device from individuals who are suspected of COVID-19.
The test is performed on standard real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) cyclers.
The ender EASY test kit is intended for use by medical professionals or trained operators who are proficient in using RT-PCR cyclers and performing standard molecular biological laboratory procedures.
ender EASY is the optimal laboratory-based solution for mass screening using saliva sample collection from individuals in a public health set-up.
ender EASY does require to be used with the omnigene® oral (OME-505, DNA Genotek Inc.) collection device (CE IVD) collection kit. ender EASY does not provide the specimen collection device.
The ender EASY test does not require a conventional RNA extraction, saving hours of laboratory time, reagents and decreasing the use of consumables.
The Swiss Federal Office of Public Health included saliva as suitable specimen for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 with PCR. For more information read the documentation:
