UGA Adapts New COVID-19 Saliva-Based Test Amid Ongoing Health Crisis

Scientists and researchers from the University of Georgia’s Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratories recently adapted a COVID-19 saliva-based test. “Everybody has worked together like they never have before, sharing information, sharing data and sequences, which has allowed us to start really with diagnostic tests to know what the virus was,” said Susan Sanchez, a professor of infectious diseases at the University of Georgia. Sanchez, section head of microbiology and molecular biology in UGA’s College of Veterinary Medicine Diagnostic Laboratory, and Jesse Hostetter, the Barry G. Harmon Professor of Pathology in the College of Veterinary Medicine and the executive director of the Tifton and Athens Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratories, were guests on Friday’s edition of “Closer Look.”

UGA scientists create COVID-19 saliva test for campus community

Scientists create COVID-19 saliva test for campus January 18, 2021 The saliva-based test offers a more comfortable way to test for the novel coronavirus When the COVID-19 pandemic first hit the U.S., the most common way to test for the virus was using nasopharyngeal (NP) swabs which pass through the nostril to the very back of the nasal cavity, where they pick up mucosal secretions. But thanks to a team of researchers from UGA’s Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratories, getting tested for the coronavirus is much less obtrusive. As of Jan. 4, UGA began offering a saliva-based COVID-19 test, developed by the College of Veterinary Medicine’s Diagnostic Laboratories, and is transitioning to primarily using the saliva test as the semester continues.
