Global Analytical and Operational Services to Support your COVID-19 Studies
As you look to rapidly initiate clinical studies for the treatment of COVID-19, you need access to clinical testing and operational support services that facilitate the execution of the trial. With our industry-leading menu of validated tests, LabConnect can offer you a comprehensive selection of SARS-CoV-2 assays:
Viral Load Testing by RT-qPCR
- RT-qPCR assay to quantify SARS-CoV-2
- Utilizes primers designed to the unique sequence of COVID-19
COVID-19 Screening Assays
- Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)- This option includes sequencing the entire viral genome for mutation analysis. NGS offers you a cost-effective and high throughput option to screen and detect COVID-19. This testing is not limited by qPCR reagent shortages and is currently available at our locations in North America and China
- Qualitative and quantitative PCR- Our PCR assays utilize a SARS-CoV-2 primer and probe set, designed to detect RNA from 2019-nCoV. Our primer and probe set sequences are based on CDC recommended guidelines. This option is available at our locations in North America, Europe, China and India
- Antibody testing: IgM and IgG levels available
In addition to viral analysis, we can provide the additional testing and sample processing services that are frequently required in COVID-19 studies:
- Viral Plaque Assays
- Immunophenotyping and cell-based assays
- Cytokine and Chemokine by various methods
- Full spectrum of biomarkers
- Global standardized PBMC isolation and DNA/RNA extraction services
Another critical concern in today’s environment: how to deliver drug to patients and obtain samples, given government restrictions and a desire to reduce virus exposure to patients? LabConnect’s unique central lab model includes access to Direct to Patient services (DTP) and Home Health Care services (HHC), which enable patients to conveniently participate in either traditional or “virtual” clinical trials.
LabConnect offers you a comprehensive solution to your study requirements including our industry leading sample tracking support, customized specimen collection kits and shippers, global logistics management, short and long term biostorage, and data integration services.
