What is Protean COVID-19 Individual Diagnostic Testing?
Protean BioDiagnostics uses a technology called SalivaDirect, which is a process developed at the Yale School of Public Health to test persons suspected of having COVID-19 for the virus, SARS-CoV-2.
- Specific: The assay was determined to have a specificity of 94.1%.
- Sensitive: Limit of detection of 1 copy/mL.
This test requires a minimum of 1 mL of liquid saliva (below bubbles) in a tightly sealed collection tube. Do not add anything to the saliva sample. A self-collection kit will be sent directly to you and will contain full instructions on how to perform the self-collection. The kit will contain everything needed to collect the samples and ship them to a Protean laboratory.
FAQ
What is your saliva sample collection method?
We use a simple self-collection method that is composed of a 2 mL cryogenic vial and saliva collection aid (straw). The saliva straw fits into a cryogenic vial and the testing individual deposits 1 mL of saliva through the straw into the vial. 1 mL of saliva is required for testing.
Is a saliva sample stable at room temperature?
Saliva samples are stable at room temperature without any buffer or refrigeration required for storage or transport.
