Figure 6: Evaluation of heat treatment methods for viscosity reduction in saliva.

Figure 6:

SARS-CoV-2 negative saliva was collected from a single source and aliquots were heat-treated for either 0 min, 30 min, or 60 min at 95 °C. P1 Ct values from technical replicates (n =12) of each condition were plotted to determine variability between treatment methods. Pairwise comparisons between groups were evaluated with an unpaired t-test (*** indicates p <0.001, * indicates p <0.05).
