Molecular assay reagents intended to identify coronaviruses, RNA viruses of the family coronaviridae, by detecting the nucleic acid of the target virus. Coronaviruses may cause respiratory or gastrointestinal disease in humans. In addition to detecting coronavirus infection, these reagents may also be capable of determining which specific coronavirus (e.g., Middle-East respiratory syndrome coronavirus [MERS-CoV], severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus [SARS-CoV], 2019 novel coronavirus [2019-CoV]) is present.
