The Matrix Effect in the RT-PCR Detection of SARS-CoV-2 Using Saliva without RNA Extraction
The present work focuses on the detection of SARS-CoV-2 in saliva, contributing to understanding the inhibition effect of the matrix and its influence on the results. Detection of viral genes ORF1ab, N, and E was performed by RT-PCR using saliva directly in the reaction without RNA extraction. Diffe...
