From: Hydrogel particles improve detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA from multiple sample types
Nanotrap particles are compatible with multiple extraction methods. Sample is mixed with Nanotrap particles and incubated for 2–10 min. Nanotrap particles are pelleted with a magnet, the supernatant is removed, and the particle pellet is resuspended in a viral lysis solution. The Nanotrap particles are pelleted with a magnet, and (a) the supernatant can be used directly in real-time RT-PCR (total workflow time is 10–20 min) or (b) the supernatant can be processed with a commercial RNA extraction kit prior to viral detection (total workflow time is 30–50 min.)
