Rapid RNA Extraction in 3 minutes
Rapid RNA extraction is critical in timely delivery of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) testing. Arcis enables users to go from biological sample to downstream testing in under 3 minutes, with a simple and highly automation-compatible workflow. Current pilot project with Hospital Carlos III & CIBERehd (Madrid, Spain) have further demonstrated compatibility with SARS-CoV-2 qPCR assay.
- Reduce RNA extraction times to 3 min faster clinical decision making
- Inactivates pathogens decrease risk for healthcare workers
- Compatible with liquid handling decrease risk for laboratory staff & support high-throughput testing
- Compatible with qPCR testing of coronavirus ready for use
Extraction protocols compatible with:
- Swabs in Viral Transport Medium
- Sputum / Saliva Samples
- Swabs without Transport Medium

Geneaid Viral Nucleic Acid Extraction Kit II
The quality of Viral Nucleic Acid Extraction Kit II is tested on a lot-to-lot basis according to Geneaid's ISO-certified quality management system by isolating viral DNA/RNA from a 200 µl serum sample.
- High Sensitivity: virus RNA/DNA can be successfully extracted and detected from as low as 10E1 copy number!
- Purify virus DNA or virus RNA in 20 minutes!
- Sample: up to 200 μl plasma, serum, body fluid or the supernatant of viral infected cell cultures
- Elution Volume: 50 μl
Viral Nucleic Acid Extraction Kit II Functional Test Data
Detection System (3 replications of each copy number). Serum samples containing various amounts of DNA/RNA viruses ranging from 10E1 to 10E6 copies/ml were successfully detected and identified. The low Ct values indicate a high number of target nucleic acid in the sample.

Magnetic Beads Virus DNA/RNA Extraction Kit Functional Test Data
Virus RNA was purified from 10E1-10E4 copy number of Red Spotted Grouper Nervous Necrosis Virus (RGNNV) using the Geneaid Magnetic Beads Virus DNA/RNA Extraction Kit (2 replications of each copy number). The purified RNA was eluted with 50 μl RNase-free Water. cDNA synthesis was carried out with a 10 μl aliquot of purified RNA using a Transcriptor First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (Roche) in a final volume of 20 μl. A Real-time PCR assay was then performed with 5 μl of synthesized cDNA as template, primers (designed to amplify the T4 region on the RNA2 segment), and Fast SYBR Green PCR Master Mix using the StepOnePlusTM Real-Time PCR system (Applied Biosystems). The results confirmed that virus RNA can be successfully extracted and detected from as low as 10E1 copy number of RGNNV.
