Direct comparison of clinical diagnostic sensitivity of saliva from buccal swabs versus combined oro-/nasopharyngeal swabs in the detection of SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.529 Omicron

2023-01-06

Abstract excerpt

While current guidelines recommend the use of respiratory tract specimens for the direct detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection, saliva has recently been suggested as preferred sample type for the sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.529 (Omicron). Here, we compare the clinical diagnostic sensitivity of paired buccal saliva swabs and combined oro-/nasopharyngeal swabs from hospitalized, symptomatic COVID-19 patients...
