Employing the RT-LAMP protocol with saliva samples. (a) RT-LAMP tests were performed on saliva from four volunteers. Each tube represents one tested volunteer. Results attained at t = 0 and t = 35 are shown. Upper panel, RT-LAMP reaction using pop7 primers as a positive control. Middle panel, control for RT-LAMP reaction with no primers. Lower panel, RT-LAMP reaction using SARS-CoV-2 gene N primers. The same samples were analyzed with the conventional hospital RT-qPCR protocol. The RT-qPCR results and Ct values are shown under the relevant samples. (b) Graphical illustration of the potential of RT-LAMP protocol for saliva self-testing.
