The Biomeme SARS-CoV-2 Starter Kit is a turnkey solution that can be used to detect the RNA of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), also known as "2019-nCoV" or "Wuhan coronavirus." Two RNA targets for the novel coronavirus are multiplexed together with Biomeme's process control assay for RNA extraction and RT-PCR (MS2). Assay targets include:

• SARS-CoV-2-Orf1ab gene
• SARS-CoV-2-Spike gene
• RNA Process Control (RNA extraction and RT-PCR control utilizing MS2 bacteriophage)

Our Starter Kits come in 2 different form factors for you to choose from:

• Go-Strips (96 rxns per order)
• Bulk Vials (~130 rxns per order)

All Starter Kits include everything you would need to collect and prepare your sample through interpreting results:

• Nasopharyngeal Swabs
• DNA/RNA Preservation Buffer in Tubes (3 mL)
• 200 µL Pipettes
• Sample Prep Tray
• M1 Sample Prep Cartridge Kit for RNA 2.0
• 2 mL Purified Sample Tubes
• Fixed Volume Pipette (10 or 20 µL)
• Boxes of Pipette Tips
• Franklin™ three9 Thermocycler
• Android Smartphone w/ Biomeme Go Mobile App
• Biomeme Cloud Software

In addition to the kit components above, Go-Strips Starter Kits include:

• SARS-CoV-2 Go-Strips (enough for 96 rxns) w/ Void Filling Caps
• Biomeme's RNA Process Control (RPC)
  

Whereas, Bulk Vial Starter Kits include:

• SARS-CoV-2 Bulk Vials (enough for ~130 rxns)
• DNase/RNase Free Molecular Grade Water
• 1 mL Transfer Pipettes
• Empty Go-Strips w/ Void Filling Caps
• Biomeme's RNA Process Control (RPC)
