Abstract excerpt
Implementation of screening for cCMV in public health programs is hindered by feasibility challenges, including limited specimen availability and an insufficiently sensitive DBS-based screening assay. We report on efforts to improve the currently available DBS-based molecular assay to increase its feasibility of implementation in newborn screening programs. Although the analytical sensitivity of the modified...
