Clear Labs Clear Dx Whole-Genome Sequencing Kit for SARS-CoV-2

Jan 27, 2021

Clear Labs has launched the Clear Dx whole-genome sequencing solution for enhanced screening and genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2.

Intended for use with samples that have already tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 by another method, the automated next-generation sequencing assay provides the complete RNA genome of the virus in less than 24 hours with approximately 30 minutes of hands-on time. The kit is for research use only.
