Shanghai Jiaotong University Feng Yan's team established a new technology for rapid detection of new crown and influenza virus based on Argonaute gene editing enzyme

Recently, Feng Yan's team from the School of Life Science and Technology of Shanghai Jiao Tong University and the State Key Laboratory of Microbial Metabolism published a report entitled "Argonaute-integrated isothermal amplification for rapid, portable and multiplex detection of SARS- CoV-2 and influenza viruses” research paper

Nucleic acid testing plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases such as COVID-19.
