Saliva screening of health care workers for SARS-CoV-2 detection. [PDF]

Rev Argent Microbiol, 2022
Health care workers (HCWs) are at high risk for SARS-CoV-2. In addition, pre-symptomatic or asymptomatic transmission accounts for around half of the cases. Saliva testing is an option to detect SARS-CoV-2 infection. To determine the performance of saliva samples for screening, HCWs were tested for SARS-CoV-2 by RT-PCR.

Infrared Based Saliva Screening Test for COVID-19. [PDF]

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl, 2021
AbstractSevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) has resulted in an unprecedented need for diagnostic testing that is critical in controlling the spread of COVID‐19. We propose a portable infrared spectrometer with purpose‐built transflection accessory for rapid point‐of‐care detection of COVID‐19 markers in saliva.

COVID‐19 screening test by using random oropharyngeal saliva [PDF]

Journal of Medical Virology, 2021
AbstractAn optimal clinical specimen for accurate detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) by minimizing the usage of consumables and reduce hazard exposure to healthcare workers is an urgent priority. The diagnostic performance of SARS‐CoV‐2 detection between healthcare worker‐collected nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal

The use of saliva for viral diagnosis and screening. [PDF]

Epidemiology and Infection, 1988
The strength and diversity of antibody responses to infection are the basis for many of the most rapid and sensitive tests in virology, yet the need to obtain the patient's consent and co–operation, to collect blood from a vein and to separate the serum before the test often deters investigators, particularly if children are involved or if there is ...

Saliva as a source of antibodies for MMR vaccine screening in teenagers [PDF]

Journal of Vaccines and Immunology, 2021
The use of safe and effective vaccines is a well-established public health intervention, with a major impact on the fall in the prevalence of infectious diseases. In the absence of environmental transmission, vaccines do not work for life, as originally detected.

Saliva: an important alternative for screening and monitoring of COVID-19 in children [PDF]

Brazilian Oral Research, 2020
The increasing number of cases of COVID-19 worldwide poses challenges to healthcare systems not only in effectively identifying individuals positive for SARS-CoV-2, but also in isolating cases to minimise contagion in early diagnosing more severe cases that will need hospitalization.
