Saliva TwoStep for rapid detection of asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 carriers

Saliva TwoStep for rapid detection of asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 carriers

Here, we develop a simple molecular test for SARS-CoV-2 in saliva based on reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification. The test has two steps: (1) heat saliva with a stabilization solution and (2) detect virus by incubating with a primer/enzyme mix. After incubation, saliva samples...
