Pooling of one positive sample with up to 5 negative samples prior to testing with the Cepheid GenXpert SARS-CoV-2 assay did not adversely impact detection of positive samples. At our current prevalence of 2%, it could save up to 70% of the test kits.

合并样本:在供应短缺期间,SARS-CoV-2的测试选项

在使用Cepheid GenXpert SARS-CoV-2分析进行测试之前,将一个阳性样品与最多5个阴性样品合并在一起,不会对阳性样品的检测产生不利影响。以我们目前2%的患病率,它最多可以节省70%的测试套件。
