Quick virus detection kits may be suitable for home use
Scientists in Shanghai and Hunan have developed two rapid coronavirus test kits.
A team from Renji Hospital and Hunan University has announced that they have developed a COVID-19 detection product that is so easy to use that people can use it at home, proving rapid diagnoses of suspected patients.
Tan Weihong, from Renji Hospital molecular medicine research institute, said current nucleic acid detection is done in specialist labs and can only be conducted by hospitals and a few professional testing organizations. His team has developed an on-site screening product that can be used in communities or even at home, cutting visits to hospitals by suspected patients and reducing the risk of cross infection.
