Webinar Abstract

Viral infections are a major global health concern, with new infectious diseases continuing to emerge. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a powerful method for the broad-range detection and identification of known and emerging respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV-2. In this webinar, Jon Hetzel will introduce our new respiratory virus oligo panel (RVOPv2) and workflow that combines a new RNA library prep and viral target enrichment.

RVOPv2 offers an easy-to-follow workflow, improved sensitivity for both detection and full genome characterization of multiple respiratory pathogens in one test. Target enrichment for a broad range of respiratory viruses enables the detection and monitoring of co-infections which can present a major challenge in disease treatment.
