Concordance between PCR-based extraction-free saliva and nasopharyngeal swabs for SARS-CoV-2 testing

2021-10-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction: </h4> Saliva represents a less invasive alternative to nasopharyngeal swab (NPS) for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) detection. SalivaDirect is a nucleic acid extraction-free method for detecting SARS-CoV2 in saliva specimens. Studies evaluating the concordance of gold standard NPS and newly developed SalivaDirect protocols are limited. The aim of our study was to ass...
