PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test

COVID-19 GBK English to Indonesian Medical Medical (general)
Definition from NPR:
A diagnostic test that detects viral particles in blood or bodily fluids. Through a process called PCR, or polymerase chain reaction, small amounts of pathogen DNA are amplified — or copied --- to sufficient levels for detection. Studies of isolated pieces of DNA are nearly impossible without PCR amplification.
Example sentences:
As ICMR has allowed rapid antibody testing in India, experts believe that it will help the agencies to enhance screening and identifying capabilities. Presently the government uses the PCR tests to detect Covid-19 from samples of throat or nasal swab of people with symptoms. (India Today)
Indonesia to receive 50,000 COVID-19 PCR test kits from South Korea (The Jakarta Post)
Most coronavirus testing discussed by public officials and the media refers to polymerase chain reaction testing, better known as PCR. The RT-PCR machine heats and cools the samples in a process that essentially Xeroxes the DNA, making thousands of copies of any genetic material in the samples. (Live Science)

tes PCR (reaksi rantai polimerase)

Tes PCR (reaksi rantai polimerase), sudah tepat digunakan sebagai padanan PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test. Untuk singkatannya, sebaiknya tetap menggunakan PCR, sebagaimana yang sudah dikenal secara luas di dunia internasional
Definition from Sheradiofm:
Para ahli menilai ada jenis tes yang relatif mudah yakni Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), atau reaksi rantai polimerase, atau dikenal juga dengan nama Swab Test. Jenis tes tersebut telah ada selama beberapa dekade. Pada test ini, dokter cukup mengambil sampel dari hidung atau tenggorokan pasien, kemudian mengirimnya ke laboratorium.
Example sentences:
Di tengah kekacauan ini, para ahli menilai ada jenis tes yang relatif mudah yakni PCR, atau reaksi rantai polimerase. Jenis tes tersebut telah ada selama beberapa dekade (Kompas)
Pemeriksaan menggunakan teknik reaksi rantai polimerase (PCR) merupakan salah satu tes untuk mendeteksi virus corona. Pemeriksaan ini dilakukan dengan cara pengumpulan usap (swab) dari saluran pernapasan atas, yakni bagian hidung, mulut dan tenggorokan. (Republika)
