ZEBOV - Ebolavirus Zaire Strain

The quanty ZEBOV system is a quantitative test that allows the RNA reverse transcription, amplification and quantification, by Real-Time PCR, of NP (Nucleoprotein) gene of Ebola genome.

The Procedure allows the detection and quantification of the RNA target by means a One step retro-amplification reaction. The analysis of the results is obtained using a Real-Time PCR analyzer (thermal cycler integrated with a system for fluorescence detection and a dedicated software).
