Abstract
Methods, kits, and oligonucleotides used in the detection of the coronavirus strain, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), are disclosed. In some aspects, the oligonucleotides are primers or probes used in the described methods or kits. The oligonucleotide consists of 40 or less nucleotides and has a nucleotide sequence that consists essentially of, or is a variant of, the nucleotide sequence of: SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:5, SEQ ID NO:6, or SEQ ID NO:7. In some embodiments, the oligonucleotide is modified with an internal spacer or a detectable label. For example, the 5′ terminus is labeled with a fluorophore and the 3′ terminus is complexed to a quencher of fluorescence of said fluorophore. In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the oligonucleotide further comprises a universal tail sequence.
