Genprice has an interresting number of Coronavirus Research detection kits.
Most kids where made before the COVID -2019 outbreak but they are on similar epitopes and we expect Gentaur Labs to supply compatibility tables of epitope alignment.
The full COVID-19 genomic sequence can be found at the NIH page.
The detection includes RT-PCR kits, Elisa and antibodies. Different species are used to to study corona viruses: mice, rats, rabbit, canine and bovine.

This means they are very unstable in UV and wet conditions. They are disintegrated by soap, acids and basic solvents.
However, they could due to their negative RNA charge accumulated on positive charged materials like glass, plastic or metal.
On a dry protected place corona-viruses are supposed to be able to survive up to 9 days.
A problem is that infectious patients stay without symptoms and can become super contaminators. In France Chamonix a British businessman contaminated 5 people in his holidays after a trade fair in Singapore where he met people from Wuhan. It became only clear after his 3 days holiday he was infected and infected other people.
Much research is needed to understand the way of transmitting. It is believed the corona-virus is transported through large airborne droplets and cannot travel that far.
