Magnetic Hydrogel Particles (Nanotrap Particle Workflow 2) Improves Sequencing of Contrived SARS-CoV-2 Samples. Heat inactivated SARS-CoV-2 was spiked into VTM at 102, 103, 104, 105, and 106 TCID50/mL and samples were processed using Nanotrap Particle Workflow 2 [+ NT] or the MagMAX Kit alone [− NT]; n = 3 for each process. Samples then underwent sequencing on a ONT MinION R.9 flow cell (a) or RT-PCR (b). [+ NT] were compared to [− NT] by paired t-test in order to assess significance of increased viral detection. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
