Coronavirus Research Products

In our modern societies where global travel has become the absolute norm, the rapid, large-scale transmission of infectious diseases is becoming of ever-increasing concern to public health infrastructure.

In order to effectively manage these severe outbreaks, it is vitally important to deeply understand these emerging diseases in order to quickly develop reliable diagnostic tests and therapeutic treatments. Often these pathogenic diseases pass to humans from another animal vector, rapidly mutating to seamlessly allow human-to-human transmission.

In the case of the novel Coronavirus originally named 2019-nCoV (now SARS-CoV-2), first officially reported in Wuhan, China at the end of December 2019, gaining a fuller molecular understanding of the viral strain was critical. In order to successfully prevent the uncontrolled global spread of this devastating virus, rigorous infection prevention and clinical control via strict quarantine and highly sensitive diagnostic testing was absolutely essential.

1. Genome & Cross-Reactivity

The early publication of the genome sequence of the new coronavirus by Chinese scientists explicitly showed that 2019-nCoV appeared to securely be a group 2B coronavirus. This directly put it in the exact same viral family as the original SARS virus, which aggressively caused a major regional outbreak in 2003. This new virus shares 89% genetic similarity to the identified SARS-related bat coronavirus.

As part of our comprehensively expanding Infectious Disease portfolio, Biorbyt is exceptionally proud to actively offer a wide range of highly validated primary antibodies and recombinant antigens to Coronavirus, specifically validated for use in a multitude of advanced applications—ranging heavily from rigorous ELISA and Western Blotting to rapid Lateral flow and Immuno-Precipitation. The native SARS antigens and high-avidity polyclonal antibodies listed below securely allow for highly accurate serological testing for the virus.
