Abstract

In this study, an innovative approach to the heat extraction method has been tested: the use of microwaves, which can dramatically decrease the time that is needed to do the genome extraction. The method can obtain the virus with enough quality to assure the identification by RT-qPCR and minimize procedures and contaminations.
