Dr. Borkotoki and the ICMR team have developed a real-time RTPCR test kit. This test kit saves time and will prove to be very useful at airports. (diagnosis of Omicron)
This kit has been found to be 100% accurate during lab testing. The results are now being reviewed at the National Virology Institute in Pune. The review report will be made public soon. The responsibility of making this kit has been given to GCC Biotech, a Kolkata based biotech company, which will start manufacturing the kit in PPP mode in next 3 to 4 days.
