Scope and Methodology
The scope of our coronavirus detection testing in animal species encompasses a wide range of potential infections that can affect various types of animals, including domestic pets, livestock, zoo animals, and wildlife. Our methodology is designed to ensure the highest level of accuracy and reliability in detecting these viruses.
Our service includes the collection, transport, and preservation of specimens from animals suspected of having a coronavirus infection. Specimens are collected using sterile techniques to maintain the integrity of the sample. Once received at our laboratory, the samples undergo rigorous processing steps that involve homogenization, nucleic acid extraction, and preparation for analysis.
The primary method used in our testing is reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). This technique amplifies specific sections of viral RNA from the specimen, allowing for the detection of even trace amounts of virus. In some cases, next-generation sequencing is employed to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the viral genome and its variants.
Our laboratory personnel are trained in handling biological materials safely and securely, adhering strictly to protocols that minimize the risk of cross-contamination. The results from these tests are interpreted by our experienced scientists who ensure that all findings are accurately reported. We maintain strict quality control measures throughout each step of the process to guarantee reliability.
The final report includes detailed information about the detected virus, including its type and subtype if applicable, along with any other relevant data such as mutation rates or geographical distribution patterns. This information can be crucial for understanding the spread of diseases within populations and informing public health policies.
