Allelic discrimination plots of deletion assays ORF1aΔ3675-3677 and SΔ69-70. Synthetic RNA controls from six SARS-CoV-2 type strains was amplified in triplicate at 4□104 genome copies/assay via TaqPath RT-qPCR along with no template controls. The deletion probe from the ORF1aΔ3675-3677 assay produced low intensity fluorescence. Sequenced positive saliva samples (n=125) were loaded in duplicate to determine the detection range of the assay in saliva. Data were plotted by using the absolute fluorescence of each reporter dye probe.
