Panel Presentation: Real time PCR for Molecular Detection and Research of Infectious Disease Pathogens Beyond SARS-COV-2 with Live Q&A

For infectious disease pathogen detection and research, real-time PCR enables reliable, sensitive, specific, and scalable results over slower culture-based methods. As SARS-CoV-2 testing declines, laboratories have the infrastructure, capacity, and skilled labor to expand their menus for other testing areas including respiratory, urinary, vaginal and STI and gastrointestinal infections. Implementation strategies to effectively deploy laboratory resources based on instrument capacity, workflow and throughput needs will be addressed in this webinar.

Learning Objectives:

1. Review the challenges associated with traditional infectious disease pathogen detection methods and benefits associated with molecular testing using RUO based real-time PCR.

2. Discuss critical quality and performance parameters implemented for assay design and manufacturing.

3. Explain the molecular testing workflow including ability to scale based on instrument and format options.

4. Support expansion of your testing menu for respiratory, urinary, vaginal and STI, and gastrointestinal infections with inventoried or custom panels.
