Expansion of a low-cost, saliva-based PCR test for the detection of mpox virus

2023-06-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Current recommendations for the diagnosis of mpox rely on lesion-swabs as the gold-standard specimen type, even though many patients experience symptoms prior to lesion-onset. Alternative sample types, such as saliva, which enable earlier detection could bolster the mpox response by mitigating transmission and facilitating access to antiviral treatments. <h4>Methods</h4> We ev...
