Setting up a Flu SC2 Multiplex Assay Template

The CDC Influenza SARS-CoV-2 (Flu SC2) Multiplex Assay is a real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test that detects and differentiates RNA from SARS-CoV-2, influenza A virus, and influenza B virus in upper or lower respiratory specimens. This video demonstrates how to set up the CDC Flu SC2 Multiplex Assay Template on an Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast Dx Real-time PCR Instrument using the optimal filter calibrations of FAM, Yakima Yellow, Texas Red X, and CY5.
