MolCOVID: Development of a Molecular Diagnostic Strategy for SARS-CoV2 Based on Saliva in the Context of the COVID-19 Pandemic
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The objective of the study is to develop and validate a molecular diagnostic strategy (RT-ddPCR multiplex) of COVID-19 based on a saliva sample and alternative to the RT-qPCR method, in order to :
-
to compensate for the risk of a shortage of diagnostic kits, reagents and materials necessary for molecular diagnosis;
-
to increase the molecular diagnostic capacity of COVID-19 at the Rouen University Hospital;
-
and to have a method compatible with screening extended to populations at risk.
