Fig. 2: Workflow.

Overview of Thermo Fisher’s TaqPath COVID-19 Multiplex Diagnostic Solution9,10 showing the steps as authorized in their EUA (yellow background) and IGI’s implementation of this workflow (blue background). The IGI’s SARS-CoV-2 testing lab was established in two phases. Phase 1 started with automated arraying of patient samples, followed by manual implementation of the Thermo Fisher kit. Phase 2 is a fully automated workflow. Bolded words indicate elements changed from the implementation above.
