ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:


SARS-CoV-2 is a novel coronavirus that has caused a worldwide outbreak of respiratory disease beginning in 2019. In this simulated medical test, we will use electrophoresis to detect the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in samples from patients with symptoms of COVID-19.

**Includes SYBR® Safe DNA Stain, NOT FlashBlue™ DNA Stain**
• Hands-on simulation of molecular testing for COVID-19
• Students learn about the characteristics of coronaviruses
• Electrophoresis is used to analyze simulated RT-PCR samples
