This RT-PCR assay was performed with the primer ... Retrospective studies have shown the presence of human metapneumovirus (HMPV) in the human population from as early as the 1950s.

Until this past January, few outside academic and diagnostic labs knew what quantitative reverse-transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) was, much less its role in viral and bacterial disease detection.

Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) is the gold standard diagnostic tool for detecting HMPV RNA, while antigen detection assays offer quicker results. In India, surveillance ...

The researchers examined nasal swabs collected from January 2021 to June 2024, using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) to screen for HMPV. The study highlights ...

Jamshedpur: The East Singhbhum civil surgeon Dr Sahir Pall on Thursday said that the district has sufficient RT-PCR testing kits for testing of Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV) and can readily begin ...

A typical Human Metapneumovirus RT PCR test may range from Rs 3,000 to Rs 8,000 at prominent labs such as Dr Lal PathLabs, Tata 1mg Labs, and Max Healthcare Lab. For a more comprehensive test that ...

TaqPath qPCR and RT-qPCR Master Mix have been extensively benchmarked against other leading suppliers’ standard and fast master mixes, demonstrating their capability to offer superior ...

Since the emergence of COVID-19 in late 2019, the gold standard in testing for the disease has been a nuclear-derived technique: real-time reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction, or real-time ...

The GoTaq ® Probe 1-Step RT-qPCR System enables detection and relative quantification of RNA expression levels using a one-step RT-qPCR method, combining GoScript™ Reverse Transcriptase and ...

Experts said laboratory tests such as RT-PCR can detect the virus' genetic material, while antibody tests help identify past exposure. Experts said that HMPV and COVID-19 are very different.
