"DeepVerge confirms that analysis to investigate the detection of SARS-CoV-2 virus on Microtox®PD chips coated with Optimers[i], binding agents provided by Aptamer Group plc "
"Scientists at the York, UK, Laboratory, have successfully populated the binding agents on the chips using an anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody, that was raised against the Alpha variant. While variation of detection of all 3 variants was observed, both Delta and Omicron variants had a higher affinity to the Optimer coated chips than Alpha."
""The body of research, protocols and methods created at the York, UK laboratories, working with the science team at Aptamer Group, and the ability to work with the real virus, offers confirmation and sets standards that allow for rapid advances in testing of our partner's binding agents, so that we can ensure that the latest detection capabilities are available when we roll-out the Compact Microtox®PD COVID detection units"
