    Coronavirus Test by PCR

    March 2020

    Isla Lab Caribbean LLC is a distributor for the Caribbean of a novel PCR test from
    Co Diagnostics

    SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19)
    The disease was first reported in 31-Dec-2019 by the Chinese government to the
    World Health Organization (WHO) after a cluster of pneumonia of unknown cause
    was identified in the city of Wuhan, Hubei province, China. The virus was found
    genetically similar to SARS-CoV, responsible for the 2002-2003 outbreak of severe
    acute respiratory syndrome. Signs and symptoms include fever, fatigue, dry cough,
    and shortness of breath. Cases of severe infection can result in pneumonia, acute
    respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and kidney failure leading to death in some
    cases. Based on early evidence, many of those who died had other conditions
    such as hypertension, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease that impaired their
    immune system.
    Person-to person transmission, especially close contact, has been confirmed in
    asymptomatic and symptomatic phases of the disease. The degree of transmission
    on each phase has not been established yet. The incubation period has shown to
    be from 1 to 12.5 days, however, because SARS had a 14 days incubation period,
    the CDC and WHO recommends considering a 14 days incubation period where
    self-isolation and quarantine is recommended. There have been reported outliers
    of 24 days incubation period.

    Intended Use
    SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes COVID-19, a contagious, zoonotic disease
    that causes respiratory infection varying from common cold symptoms to severe
    pneumonia and occasionally death.
    The Logix Smart COVID-19 Test Kit is intended for molecular biology applications
    to aid in the qualitative detection of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) strain
    SARS-CoV-2, in patients that meet the clinical criteria for COVID-19 (e.g. fever,
    cough, shortness of breath, travel history to China) in lower respiratory tract
    (sputum, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), tracheal aspirate), upper respiratory tract
    (nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal fluids, nasal swab) and serum.
    This Logix Smart COVID-19 real-time RT-PCR assay is a single step reverse
    transcription real-time reaction that can be broken down into 3 stages: sample
    preparation, reverse transcription, and the polymerase chain reaction with real-time
    monitoring. The assay has an internal positive control (IPC) that also acts as an
    extraction control to monitor the extraction, amplification, and detection steps.
    This product is for export only and is not for sale in the United States.
