The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a worldwide shortage of nasopharyngeal swabs and universal transport media. This study evaluated a combined oropharynx/nares (OP/Na) sample collection using two readily-available non-flocked swabs, transported in phosphate-buffered saline, and demonstrates equivalent performance in SARS-CoV-2 detection compared to a previously-validated OP/Na collection kit.
COVID-19 大流行导致鼻咽拭子和通用运输介质在全球范围内短缺。本研究评估了使用两种现成的非植绒拭子采集口咽/鼻腔（OP/Na）样本，并用磷酸盐缓冲盐水运输，并与经过验证的 OP/Na 采集试剂盒相比，在 SARS-CoV-2 检测方面具有相当的性能。
