Invitrogen™ Intact Virus Precipitation Reagent (optimized for SARS-CoV-2)

Enables fast and efficient enrichment of intact, live SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus from dilute cell culture and virus transport media.

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ 10720D

Catalog No. 10-720-D

Description

• The enrichment is gentle and fast and can be performed in less than three hours.
• By tying up water molecules, the reagent forces less-soluble components such as vesicles out of solution, allowing them to be collected by a short, low-speed centrifugation.
• The isolated intact virus can be used for functional studies, in contrast to current SARS-CoV-2 purification methods based on extracting RNA for detection purposes.
• Intact Virus Precipitation Reagent allows for enrichment of intact virus from large, dilute samples for further virus growth or use in any downstream functional assays, protein research, PCR, etc.
• Flexible volume—dilute virus samples can be enriched from large sample volumes
• Straight to PCR—no further nucleic acid extraction is needed prior to PCR
• The enriched virus is now ready for any downstream analysis and can be used directly in a PCR reaction without any further nucleic acid extraction.
• The reagent can also be used on other viruses.
