The Northwest China epidemic, which started in October this year due to the "elderly tour group", has covered nearly one third of China in just one week.
Why is it spreading so fast in the vast grasslands of Inner Mongolia under the normalization of prevention and control by all parties? The problem lies in the weak epidemic prevention and control capacity at border crossings and the low capacity of rapid Nucleic Acid testing; and fully exposes the unreasonable layout of rapid Nucleic Acid testing institutions in land port cities and tourist cities, the lack of convenient rapid Nucleic Acid testing services and the untimely feedback of test results.
This means that the demand for rapid Nucleic Acid testing in provincial capitals, central cities, port cities and tourist cities has further surged, and another wave of PCR laboratory construction is coming!
PCR laboratory, also known as molecular laboratory, clinical gene amplification test laboratory. Has gradually become an essential part of the testing field, so what are the main areas of the PCR laboratory and what equipment is needed? Let's learn about it together.
In principle, the following areas should be set up: reagent storage and preparation area, specimen preparation area, amplification area, amplification product analysis area. And these four areas must be completely independent of each other in physical space, each area should always be completely separated in space or in use, and there should be no direct air communication.
Access to each work area should be strictly in a single direction: reagent storage and preparation area → specimen preparation area → amplification area → amplification product analysis area.
In the requirements of rapid detection of new crown nucleic acid more and more "fast, accurate, precise", combined with the use of high-tech instruments, the laboratory area can be combined appropriately: ① using real-time fluorescence PCR instrument, amplification area, amplification product analysis area can be combined; ② using sample processing, nucleic acid extraction and amplification detection as one of the automated analyzer, then the specimen preparation area, amplification area, amplification product analysis area. then the specimen preparation area, amplification area, amplification product analysis area can be combined.
Recently, the State Ministry of Finance issued a number of notices on the early release of the 2022 grant budget, the early release of 15.57 billion funds, financial support for the prevention and control of major infectious diseases, including strengthening laboratory construction and equipment configuration capacity building! At the end of this year, laboratory growth brought 7.986 billion incremental market space, the market is geometrically explosive growth, which also means that the related medical equipment configuration and laboratory construction, will continue to usher in strong demand in 2022!
According to the actual needs of epidemic prevention and control, to achieve rapid deployment, one-stop rapid detection of new crown nucleic acid, now the square cabin PCR laboratory has the advantages of flexible, efficient and standardized process, mobile, in situ testing, very suitable for CDC, hospitals, ports, temporary collection points and many other scenarios, powerfully assist the region to carry out large-scale screening of epidemic prevention and control, to promote the regional new crown nucleic acid detection capacity to improve, and make every effort to do a good job of normal The new nucleic acid test can be used in hospitals, ports and temporary collection points.
