Validation and Implementation of a Direct RT-qPCR Method for Rapid Screening of SARS-CoV-2 Infection by Using Non-Invasive Saliva Samples

2020-11-25

Abstract excerpt

Background: There is an urgent need to curb COVID-19 pandemic through early identification of asymptomatic but infectious cases. We aimed to validate and implement an optimized screening method for detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA combining use of self-collected raw saliva samples, single-step heat-treated virus inactivation and RNA extraction, and direct RT-qPCR.<br><br>Methods: The study was conducted in Sant Joan de...
