influenza assay
From an IFU for an assay for the qualitative detection and identification of influenza A and influenza B viral nucleic acids extracted from nasal swab, nasopharyngeal swab, and nasal aspirate/wash specimens. I am unsure of the meaning of "hold" below. Can somebody please help me out?
”Set the RT-‐PCR cycling times and temperatures at the bottom of the screen as follows:
1. **Hold**
2. Temp: 55.0
3. Secs: 300
4. Optics: OFF”
