RESUMO

A Taqman amplicon targeting the nucleocapsid gene of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) is 5 log10 times more sensitive for SARS-CoV target RNA extracted from infected cells and 2.79 log10 times more sensitive for RNA extracted from patient material of the index case in Frankfurt than an amplicon targeting the polymerase gene.
