FAQ: How much sample can be added to the reaction as input for the SARS-CoV-2 assay?

For 96-well assays, we typically recommend 2-10 μl of extracted nucleic acid in a 20 μl reaction for best results. 

For manual 384-well assays, we recommend up to 5 μl of extracted nucleic acid in a 10 μl reaction. In some 384-well workflows, 5 μl reactions (up to 2 μl sample input) can also be used.
