Fast, Open and Digitalized PCR Platform Produces Results in 15 Minutes

Researchers are developing a rapid test system that would combine the advantages of more sensitive PCR tests and cheaper, but less reliable, on-the-spot antigen tests that are sold in drug stores and supermarkets. The new tests will also be more affordable than the PoC PCR rapid test systems that are currently on the market. More...
