Japanese test detects Ebola in 30 minutes

The video tutorial explains a test developed to detect Ebola infection within 30 minutes. It describes the process of extracting RNA from a blood sample, synthesizing it into DNA, and mixing it with Ebola-specific primers and reagents. If Ebola genetic material is present, the reaction causes the reagents to become cloudy, providing a visual confirmation of the infection.
