The Drug Regulatory Authority of Pakistan (Drap) has approved the N-CovKit diagnostic kits that have been developed by scientists at the National University of Science and Technology (Nust) after its trial was successfully completed.

Federal Minister for Science and Technology Chaudhry Fawad Hussain also confirmed the news and extended his felicitations to both the leadership of Nust and the scientists.
