Nanotrap® Magnetic Virus Particles
Nanotrap Magnetic Virus Particles concentrate SARS-CoV-21,2 from wastewater samples without ultracentrifugation or filtration.
- Capture and concentrate whole virus from wastewater samples.
- Compatible with RT-qPCR, RT-ddPCR and sequencing based analysis methods.
- Replace filtration and ultracentrifugation methods, without sacrificing assay sensitivity.

For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Features
- Nanotrap Magnetic Virus Particles are designed to capture and concentrate a variety of viruses.
- Nanotrap Magnetic Virus Particles offer a simple and rapid approach for concentration of SARS-CoV-2 from large volume wastewater samples.
- Nanotrap particles utilize affinity capture and enrichment technology to bind low abundance targets.
- Wastewater processing protocols available for manual or automated workflows.
Benefits
- Increase sensitivity of existing SARS-CoV-2 assay by capturing and concentrating whole virus.
- Use without the need to filter the raw wastewater samples.
- Process samples 20 times faster than other methods.
- Improve Ct values by at least 1-2 cycles in wastewater samples when used with Nanotrap Enhancement Reagent.

Processing Method Comparison: Traditional Processing vs. High Throughput Processing:
Traditional Wastewater Processing Method
Traditional methods for processing virus from wastewater samples require multiple time-consuming and laborious steps which severely limit throughput.

High-Throughput Wastewater Processing Method with Nanotrap® Particles
Nanotrap Magnetic Virus Particles rapidly capture and concentrate viruses from raw sewage, requiring no filtration or ultracentrifugation. Automated and manual methods available.
Automated method enables 96 raw sewage samples to be processed in 4.5 h (concentration to RT-qPCR detection/quantification), reducing the processing time by at least 20-fold.
