DiaPlexQ™ Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Detection Kit, Covid19, Corona virus
DiaPlexQ™ MERS Virus Detection Kit
Real-Time OneStep RT-PCR based assay system for detection of MERS-CoV
RUO (Research Use Only)
MERS (Middle East respiratory syndrome) is an respiratory virus which was detected from Saudi Arabia on 24th Sep, 2012. The factor virus is MERS-CoV. People suspect that cause of virus come from bat and spread the infection to other animals. The symptom shows very similar with SAS that disease coming from same coronavirus origin. Initial symptom can be distinguish such as influenza because the symptom is very similar with is also. So just symptom diagnostic is really difficult. However, Mers has low infectivity so we can consider possibility of overwhelming disease is kind of low at this moment. But we need to preventive measures against the MERS because virus can be mutate and possible to being highly contagious disease. We should prepare strict prevent measures for early infection block. There is no medicine development yet for MERS virus so far.
