US BioTek Laboratories has launched Monkeypox diagnostic testing, which can deliver results within 24 hours.

Using lesion swap specimen and real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) testing, the new product will identify Monkeypox, as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

RT-PCR is used when the initial material is RNA, which is first transcribed into complementary DNA (cDNA) by reverse transcriptase, in this process.

The cDNA is then later used as the template for the polymerase chain reaction.

Various benefits of the new diagnostic testing product include the delivery of rapid test results, a simple collection method using a skin lesion swab, and positive/negative report formats that are easy to read.

US BioTek Laboratories CEO Jack Frausing said: “As we have seen in recent years, quantifying our viral statuses as quickly as possible can have huge impacts on our personal and public health.
