ELITechGroup MDx LLC Introduces SARS-CoV-2 Plus - Continuing Fight Against COVID-19 and Flu Season

BOTHELL, Wash., Sept. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- ELITechGroup MDx LLC, a leading global provider of molecular diagnostic testing products, announced today it is introducing the SARS-CoV-2 Plus for Research Use Only (RUO) in the United States. Releasing in early October, the SARS-CoV-2 Plus RUO uses nasopharyngeal and nasal swab specimens to test for five infectious targets including SARS-CoV-2 (both ORF1ab & ORF8) influenza A, influenza B and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

Developed and manufactured in Bothell, WA, the SARS-CoV-2 Plus RUO reagents are designed for use on a variety of existing lab instruments including the ELITe InGenius®. The SARS-CoV-2 Plus RUO uses RNase P as an endogenous control for increased test reliability and is available under Research Use Only for laboratory facilities to validate the reagents.

"In anticipation of a severe flu season in tandem with the ongoing novel coronavirus, it's imperative that hospitals and labs are equipped with highly-effective tests," said Christoph Gauer, ELITechGroup CEO. "We remain committed to helping healthcare workers on the front lines and will submit our SARS-CoV-2 Plus Assay to the FDA for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) at the end of October."
