如何判断自己是否感染新型冠状病毒?
通过使用Medico病毒采样试剂盒获取新冠病毒样本.
病毒的特点是很小, 普通光学显微镜下看不见, 并且无法用肉眼直接观察. 但每种病毒都有其独特的基因序列. By detecting the viral nucleic acid in the patient, it can be judged whether there is a virus in the patient.
Most of the current viral nucleic acid detection kits use the fluorescent quantitative PCR method. The detection principle is to use the unique gene sequence of the virus as the detection target. Through PCR amplification, the target DNA sequence we choose increases exponentially. Each amplified DNA sequence can be labeled with a fluorescent label that we added in advance. The probe binds to produce a fluorescent signal. The more target genes amplified, the stronger the accumulated fluorescent signal. In samples without virus, since there is no target gene amplification, no increase in fluorescence signal can be detected. 所以, nucleic acid detection is actually to determine whether there is viral nucleic acid in the sample by detecting the accumulation of fluorescent signals.
