COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2)
Environmental Rapid Testing
The main transmission route of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) virus was determined as through inhalation of respiratory droplets released from an infected person coughing and sneezing, and/or having direct contact with a contaminated surface. COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) virus was detected on a chopping board from imported salmon in Beijing, China. It is not yet known whether COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) virus can survive and spread at low temperature environment. Seafood markets, fruit and vegetable markets, meat processing and other food processing plants may become areas at high risk of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) virus transmission. The detection of environmental samples, such as public transportation, wastewater, aquatic products (fish and shrimp),or meat (pig, cattle and sheep), will help us understand the contamination risk of the COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) virus, as well as disinfection effectivity while applying disinfectants on contaminated samples.

Applications

Production and processing
Slaughterhouses, breeding farms, and vegetable planting bases should test environmental samples to ensure a safe production environment.
Meat processing plants, aquatic product processing plants and feed processing plants shall conduct tests on the meat, fresh food and grains purchased by the company to ensure that the products will not be contaminated by viruses.

Logistics transportation
Viruses can survive for a long time at low temperatures. Cargo ships, and air transportation can easily cause the spread of the virus. Therefore, companies need to focus on testing food packaging, storage freezer surfaces and wastewater to ensure transportation safety.

Market trade
Supermarkets should conduct inspections on the meat and aquatic products they supplied to protect consumers' health and a safe shopping environment.
