Article Snippet: Matched samples of nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS), oropharyngeal swab (OPS) and saliva were collected simultaneously from each subject participating of this study, as follows: two NPS samples (one swab for each nostril) containing 3 mL of viral transport medium (VTM) (Laborclin, Paraná, Brazil), one OPS sample containing 3 mL of VTM (Laborclin, Paraná, Brazil), and saliva (spit) were collected using 50 mL sterile sputum containers containing 300 μL of 0.9% NaCl solution.

Techniques: Biomarker Discovery
