NYU Abu Dhabi researchers develop new technique for a more accurate COVID-19 test
Abu Dhabi: One critical barrier in efforts to control the COVID-19 pandemic has been the relatively high false-negative rate for the most commonly-used Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) testing methods. Often, these methods are not able to detect lower viral loads, which are typically present in asymptomatic individuals but which are below the limit of detection (LoD) of standard one or two-step RT-PCR methods. Researchers from NYU Abu Dhabi’s Biology Programme and Center for Genomics and Systems Biology (CGSB) have implemented a new three-step testing approach that promises to significantly — and cost-effectively — improve testing accuracy. Rather than combining the
