Genome depth, coverage, and mapping rates of known concentrations of SARS-CoV-2 seeded in wastewater in Trials A and B. Average and range values were generated from each batch of dilution (9 samples each) in Trials A and B.
Concentrations of SARS-CoV-2 seeded/50 mL of wastewater | No. of wastewater samples analyzed | Total no.of quality-filtered reads(mean ± SD) | Total no. ofSARS-CoV-2 mapped reads(mean ± SD) | Range of SARS-CoV-2 mapping rates (%) | Average genome depth (range) | Range of genomic coverage breadth at ≥30 times the depth (%) | Mapping rate (%) | |
