Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized the detection and characterization of viral pathogens, enhancing global health efforts against outbreaks like SARS-CoV-2.


However, current reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) methods often fall short when detecting multiple viruses simultaneously, limiting their effectiveness. The latest viral detection technology enables the simultaneous detection and characterization of 29 common respiratory viruses with high sensitivity and uniform genome coverage. 


This application note explores how an innovative targeted sequencing panel provides a comprehensive tool for infectious disease research and public health monitoring.

  • How to detect and characterize multiple viral genomes in a single assay
  • The benefits of NGS hybrid capture over conventional RT-PCR for viral surveillance
  • Key findings on the panel's sensitivity, enrichment efficiency and performance
