5 Minutes CRISPR-Based COVID-19 Test
Gene-editing technology
and modified mobile phone camera, a COVID-19 Test capable of detecting the
virus in 5 Minutes have been developed by the team of California-based
researchers. The problem of under-testing in epidemic-stricken countries could
be solved through this discovery.
The Nobel Prize for
chemistry, Dr.Jennifer Doudna from the University of California, Berkeley, led
the research team and announced the test successful developments in a research
paper.
World largest countries
where the COVID-19 cases are rising. The most of the test available for
COVID-19 need at least 24 hours to provide results however, there could be
several days due to backlogs.
So, the CRISPR-based
test developed by Feng Which has been used in the US. Since, May still needs comples laboratory equipment
for the amplification of DNA with test result in an hour.
