  2. Infrared thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_thermometer

    In 2020 when COVID-19 pandemic hit the world, infrared thermometers were used to measure people's temperature and deny them entry to potential transmission sites if they showed signs of fever. Public health authorities such as the FDA in United States published rules to assure accuracy and consistency among the infrared thermometers.

  3. COVID-19 testing - Wikipedia

    COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test Kit; the timer is provided by the user. Mucus from nose or throat in a test liquid is placed onto a COVID-19 rapid antigen diagnostic test device. COVID-19 rapid testing in Rwanda. An antigen is the part of a pathogen that elicits an immune response. Antigen tests look for antigen proteins from the viral surface.

  4. SARS-CoV-2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SARS-CoV-2

    Masitinib was found to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 main protease, showing a greater than 200-fold reduction in viral titers in the lungs and nose of mice, however it is not approved for the treatment of COVID-19 in humans.

  5. Coronavirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronavirus

    Transmission and life-cycle of SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19. Coronaviruses vary significantly in risk factor. Some can kill more than 30% of those infected, such as MERS-CoV, and some are relatively harmless, such as the common cold. [49] Coronaviruses can cause colds with major symptoms, such as fever, and a sore throat from swollen adenoids. [91]

  6. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop-mediated_isothermal...

    Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) primers [1] Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) product [1]. In LAMP, the target sequence is amplified at a constant temperature of 60–65 °C (140–149 °F) using either two or three sets of primers and a polymerase like Bst Klenow fragment with high strand displacement activity in addition to a replication activity.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronavirus_diseases

    Coronavirus diseases are caused by viruses in the coronavirus subfamily, a group of related RNA viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds. In humans and birds, the group of viruses cause respiratory tract infections that can range from mild to lethal.

  8. Biosensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biosensor

    In the Wasp Hound odor-detector, the mechanical element is a video camera and the biological element is five parasitic wasps who have been conditioned to swarm in response to the presence of a specific chemical. [124] Current commercial electronic noses, however, do not use biological elements.

  9. Photodetector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photodetector

    A microbolometer is a specific type of bolometer used as a detector in a thermal camera. Cryogenic detectors are sufficiently sensitive to measure the energy of single x-ray, visible and infrared photons. [18] Pyroelectric detectors detect photons through the heat they generate and the subsequent voltage generated in pyroelectric materials.
