This virus can cause severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). It is transmissible from human to human through droplets and aerosols. Studies have shown that the virus can remain active after the droplets evaporate for up to three days on some surfaces. Contaminated surfaces would therefore be vectors of propagation. For this reason, enhanced cleaning of surfaces is critical in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Faced with this pandemic, companies and health authorities are looking for solutions to detect the possible presence of SARS-CoV-2. Their objective is to implement, as quickly as possible, health measures likely to protect the health and safety of employees and their environment. Eurofins offers a real-time RT-PCR test developed by its R&D teams, optimized and validated for both the detection of coronaviruses and the identification of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) on swab samples . Detecting SARS-CoV-2 in frequent contact areas in your workplace will provide you with: An indication of the presence of the virus which could allow you to implement additional measures that appear in your risk management program to avoid contagion (for example, the possibility of having the members of the team present on site tested That day). Confirmation of the effectiveness of cleaning and decontamination methods used in your work environment. As part of its surface analysis solutions, Eurofins offers a test for the detection of coronaviruses and, if necessary, a specific identification test for SARS-CoV-2 by PCR. This analysis service can allow you to assess the risks present on your sites and the need for cleaning, or to determine whether the cleaning has been carried out optimally. Priority samples should be taken from areas of frequent contact, for example, door handles, stair railings, keyboards, telephones, tables. It is relevant to test the interior spaces frequented by contaminated people before reopening them, reoccupying them, or reassigning them.
