High Concordance Between SYBR Green and TaqMan PCR for SARS-CoV-2 Detection in Nasopharyngeal and Saliva Samples
18 Aug 2025
Abstract excerpt
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the standard diagnostic assay for SARS-CoV-2 detection was RT-qPCR using TaqMan probes, with samples primarily taken through nasal and oropharyngeal swabs. The TaqMan-based method is costly, highlighting the need for a more affordable alternative for SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis. As an alternative strategy, we developed and evaluated a SYBR Green-based RT-qPCR method targeting the...
