Evaluation of RT-PCR pooling test for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 in low-resource setting
2022-08-22
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Specimen pooling is an efficient method when there is limited accessibility or scarcity of test kits and reagents for nucleic acid extraction and molecular detection. We evaluated the ability of the standard real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test for detecting a single positive sample of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) within a pool...
