    Snippet: To combat viral pandemics, there is an urgent need for inexpensive new technologies that enable fast, reliable, and scalable detection of viruses. Here we repurposed the type III CRISPR-Cas system for sensitive and sequence specific detection of SARS-CoV-2 in an assay that can be performed in one hour or less. RNA recognition by type III systems triggers Cas10-mediated polymerase activity, which simultaneously generates pyrophosphates, protons and cyclic oligonucleotides. We show that amplified

Here we repurposed the type III CRISPR-Cas system for sensitive and sequence specific detection of SARS-CoV-2 in an assay that can be performed in one hour or less. RNA recognition by type III systems triggers Cas10-mediated polymerase activity, which simultaneously generates pyrophosphates, protons and cyclic oligonucleotides. We show that amplified products of the Cas10-polymerase are detectable using colorimetric or fluorometric readouts.
