Mingde Biology releases nucleic acid detection solution for Chikungunya virus and mosquito-borne pathogens.

Recently, Mingde Biotech has released a nucleic acid detection solution for Chikungunya virus and mosquito-borne pathogens. For Chikungunya fever, the fastest testing result can be generated within 1 hour. "We use fluorescent PCR method, with a sensitivity of 50-200 copies per milliliter. In other words, even if there are only a few virus particles in 1 milliliter of blood, they can be detected," said the person in charge of Mingde Biotech. This solution has been put into use in the disease control centers and hospitals in Hubei Province and the southwestern region of China.
