(NASDAQ: APDN) (the \u201cCompany\u201d), a leader in Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)-based DNA manufacturing, today announced the launch of its Linea\u2122 COVID-19 Selective Genomic Surveillance\u2122 (SGS) Mutation Panel (the \u201cSGS Panel\u201d) to enhance the utility of limited Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) resources in the United States to track better the SARS-CoV-2 Variants of Concern (VOCs) at local, state, and federal levels. The SGS Panel uses a matrix of proprietary quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays that target salient mutations that characterize relevant identified VOCs to narrow the selection of positive samples worth subjecting to NGS analysis, which is the only method of conclusively identifying a specific variant. The Company is targeting SGS Panel sales at state and federal government laboratories, hospitals, academic institutions, and certified diagnostic laboratories.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nApplied DNA is leveraging existing sales channels to market the SGS Panel and recently launched a national ad campaign in <i>Clinical Laboratory News<\/i> and <i>Genetic Engineering &amp; Biotechnology News<\/i> to support its marketing initiatives. Use of the SGS Panel is currently limited to research use only (RUO) and is not meant to be diagnostic. The Company will be offering for sale both the SGS Panel (RUO) in 100 reaction kits and the Company\u2019s EUA-authorized Linea\u2122 COVID-19 Assay Kit (the \u201cAssay Kit\u201d) that can detect certain variants via S-gene dropout. The Company believes the combination of the SGS Panel and Assay Kit forms a robust decision matrix to empower the efficient use of NGS resources. The Company is also planning to offer additional RUO services that include NGS sequencing of entire viral genomes. The Company is targeting the sequencing of 100 SARS-CoV-2 viromes per day with a capacity for twice that number.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nTracking and containing variant spread is especially important as the population builds national immunity via the vaccine rollout. In addition, understanding variant impact on those vaccinated or previously infected by SARS-CoV-2 is essential to the design of variant vaccine boosters or the revision of monoclonal antibody therapies to address new variant antigens.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDr. James Hayward, president and CEO of Applied DNA, stated, \u201cThe lack of NGS gene sequencing capacity in the U.S. with which to confirm specific variant identity is creating a demand for easy-to-use and cost-effective positive sample prescreening tools to supplement and strengthen the NGS capacity of participating laboratories. As the epidemiological threat changes with the arrival of new lineages, or as the dominant VOC lineages evolve mutations that are naturally selected for improved viral fitness, the need to sequence samples via NGS will continue to grow and put further strain on the nation\u2019s finite NGS capacity. We believe the best way to efficiently allocate this important national resource is to select only valuable samples for sequencing via the use of a qPCR decision matrix powered by our SGS Panel and Assay Kit. We believe that the identification of known VOCs and new variants from other phylogenetic paths is essential to containing the spread of COVID-19, even &#8211; and especially &#8211; in the face of a successful vaccination campaign.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p><b><span class=\"bwuline\">About the Linea COVID-19 Assay Kit and the Linea COVID-19 Selective Genomic Surveillance\u2122 (SGS) Mutation Panel<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nThe Linea\u2122 COVID-19 Assay Kit is authorized by FDA EUA for the qualitative detection of nucleic acid from SARS-CoV-2 in respiratory specimens, including anterior nasal swabs, self-collected at a healthcare location or collected by a healthcare worker, and nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs, mid-turbinate nasal swabs, nasopharyngeal washes\/aspirates or nasal aspirates, and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) specimens collected by a healthcare worker from individuals who are suspected of COVID-19 by their healthcare provider. The scope of the Linea\u2122 COVID-19 Assay Kit EUA, as amended, is expressly limited to use consistent with the Instructions for Use by authorized laboratories, certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) to perform high complexity tests. The EUA will be effective until the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of the emergency use of in vitro diagnostics for detection and\/or diagnosis of COVID-19 is terminated or until the EUA\u2019s prior termination or revocation. The diagnostic kit has not been FDA cleared or approved, and the EUA\u2019s limited authorization is only for the detection of nucleic acid from SARS-CoV-2, not for any other viruses or pathogens.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Linea\u2122 COVID-19 Selective Genomic Surveillance\u2122 (SGS) Mutation Panel (the \u201cSGS Panel\u201d) is for Research Use Only (RUO) and shall not be used for clinical diagnostic purposes. The SGS Panel has not been approved or authorized to diagnose, ameliorate and\/or detect any disease by any U.S. or international regulatory authority. In addition, all NGS services to be offered by the Company will be for Research Use Only (RUO).\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About Applied DNA Sciences<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nApplied DNA is commercializing LinearDNA\u2122, its proprietary, large-scale polymerase chain reaction (\u201cPCR\u201d)-based manufacturing platform that allows for the large-scale production of specific DNA sequences.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe LinearDNA platform has utility in the nucleic acid-based <i>in vitro<\/i> diagnostics and preclinical nucleic acid-based drug development and manufacturing market.
