Norgen’s complete COVID-19 workflow

Introducing Norgen’s complete COVID-19 workflow from point of collection to quick and easy real time RT- PCR detection based on TaqMan™ technology.

Sample Collection & Preservation

Preserve total RNA including viral RNA with Norgen’s convenient all-in-one collection system for up to 2 months.

  • No need to immediately process samples
  • Preserve total DNA, including viral DNA, at room temperature 2 years
  • Preserve total RNA, including viral RNA, at room temperature for 2 months
  • Inactivate microorganisms and viruses for safe and easy transport and handling
  • Compatible with most DNA and RNA isolation methods
  • Compatible with many sample types, including nose, mouth, throat and skin
  • Validated for COVID-19 detection

RNA Isolation

For rapid purification of total RNA, including microRNA, without phenol

  • Extract high quality & purity total RNA including miRNA
  • No phenol step required
  • Bind & elute all RNA irrespective of size or GC content, without bias
  • Efficiently extract small RNA irrespective of GC content
  • Very sensitive & linear down to a few cells without the need for carrier RNA
  • Convenient & fast spin column format
  • Isolate from a wide variety of specimens
  • Purified RNA is suitable for a variety of downstream applications, including Small RNA Sequencing. Find out more information on Norgen’s NGS services
