SARS-Cov-2, Real-Time RT-PCR, Saliva (SalivaDirect™)

The SARS-CoV-2 Real-Time RT-PCR test (SalivaDirect™) is a diagnostic test used to detect the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in saliva samples. This test employs a real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) methodology to identify viral RNA, providing reliable and sensitive results for COVID-19 diagnosis. SalivaDirect™ is a method developed by researchers at Yale University that streamlines the testing process and can be more accessible than traditional nasal swab testing.
