Step Description
Target Capture Isolation and purification of viral RNA/DNA
from plasma.
Transcription-Mediated Amplification (TMA) Amplification of target RNA/DNA produces
multiple copies of RNA for easier detection.
Hybridization Protection Assay (HPA) Detection of the amplified RNA/DNA using
light-emitting nucleic acid probes.
Dual Kinetic Assay (DKA) Analysis of kinetic chemiluminescent data to
determine the validity and reactivity status of a
sample.
