LGC
SARS-CoV-2 solutions

LGC’s SeraCare has expanded its line of SARS-CoV-2 quality solutions to include products designed for use with multiplexed molecular assays that can detect SARS-CoV-2, influenza A/B and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

The AccuPlex SARS-CoV-2, Flu A/B and RSV Verification Panel is optimised for assay verification at installation by documenting test performance along the assay’s range. 

This enables labs to establish lower limits of detection, perform assay comparisons, and evaluate staff proficiency. 

The AccuPlex SARS-CoV-2, Flu A/B and RSV Reference Material Kit measures day-to-day assay performance, providing a positive and a negative reference solution.
