To increase the city's capacity to administer nucleic acid tests, which are used to screen those suspected of being infected, a new laboratory started operation in #Guangzhou on Tuesday. Built at the Guangzhou Gymnasium in Baiyun district by Guangzhou #KingMed Diagnostics Group, it can test 30,000 samples a day, the company said in a statement released on Tuesday.

The laboratory is linked to Guangzhou KingMed's headquarters laboratory and includes areas for reagent preparation, sample processing and amplification analysis, it said. The #laboratory can receive samples around the clock and issue results in six to 10 hours.
