SNPsig EscapePLEX SARS-CoV-2 is a first-to-market assay panel in a single kit able to detect the four most critical SARS-CoV-2 mutations currently recognized, combined with a confirmatory two-gene assay for COVID-19. The research-use-only kit detects the biologically significant ‘escape’ mutations E484K, K417N, K417T and P681R, present in the Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Delta Variants of Concern (VoC), and also incorporates the two gene (ORF1ab and M) assay to provide a confirmatory detection of SARS-CoV-2.
