PCR tests have been part of everyday laboratory life since the beginning of the pandemic. The test procedure detects the genetic material of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in patients infected with Covid-19. For the separation of viral RNA from a throat-nasal swab, a technology for handling magnetic microparticles from KIT is used. This technology is widely used in the commercial laboratory systems of PerkinElmer chemagen Technologie GmbH.
