Abstract
Generally, rapid detection of viral infection is necessary for preventing the virus from spreading among people in a society as a pandemic. Although there are many effective standard techniques used for virus identification, they are laborious, required skilled person to handle and time-consuming. Particularly, the detection of viral infection involved in the isolation and nucleic acid detection by collecting specimens (sample) from the appropriate sites. For instance, oral or nasal swab, nasopharyngeal or tracheal extract, lung tissue, blood, sputum and feces are collected in order to investigate the pandemic, COVID-19 for the effective and rapid diagnosis and eventually for the treatment. In this mini-review, it is summarized that the advanced testing methods which include RNA, immunologic and radiological based tests that could be used to detect COVID-19 and their cost, reliability and functionality are discussed in this review. This mini-review might help the researcher and health care sector to plan the diagnostic procedures as per the severity of the new infection, COVID-19.
