Limit of detection of SARS-CoV-2 viral particles across swab types. (Synthetic rayon “SYN”, CGp, and TMI) “Noswab” refers to direct extraction of viral particles. a Comparisons of total RNA recovery per extraction across swab types including “noswab” performed at each dilution (Kruskal-Wallis test). Comparison of theory input genome equivalents “GE” to measured GE of triplicates (mean, SEM) by RT-qPCR of SARS-CoV-2. Non-linear regression analysis of each dilution series for noswab, SYN, CGp, and TMI swabs
