recommendations! Published in 2021 at "Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease"

DOI: 10.1016/j.diagmicrobio.2021.115432

Abstract: SARS-CoV-2 has surged across the globe causing the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Systematic testing to facilitate index case isolation and contact tracing is needed for efficient containment of viral spread. The major bottleneck in leveraging testing… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2020 at "Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness"

DOI: 10.1017/dmp.2020.246

Abstract: ABSTRACT Diagnostic testing to identify patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) plays a key role to control the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. While several countries have implemented the use of diagnostic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0950268824000876

Abstract: Abstract Surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 through reported positive RT-PCR tests is biased due to non-random testing. Prevalence estimation in population-based samples corrects for this bias. Within this context, the pooled testing design offers many advantages, but… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41586-020-2885-5

Abstract: Suppressing infections of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) will probably require the rapid identification and isolation of individuals infected with the virus on an ongoing basis. Reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT–PCR) tests are… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2105180119

Abstract: Significance Frequent mass testing can slow a rapidly spreading infectious disease by quickly identifying and isolating infected individuals from the population. One proposed method to reduce the extremely high costs of this testing strategy is… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Physica Scripta"

DOI: 10.1088/1402-4896/adab39

Abstract: Medical diagnostic testing can be made significantly more efficient using pooled testing protocols. These typically require a sparse infection signal and use either binary or real-valued entries of O(1) . However, existing methods do not… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "American Journal of Epidemiology"

DOI: 10.1093/aje/kwac178

Abstract: Abstract Pooled testing has been successfully used to expand SARS-CoV-2 testing, especially in settings requiring high volumes of screening of lower-risk individuals, but efficiency of pooling declines as prevalence rises. We propose a differentiated pooling… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2021 at "Clinical Chemistry"

DOI: 10.1093/clinchem/hvab035

Abstract: The SARS-CoV-2 virus has spread globally, with >95 million reported cases and 2 million deaths. Although, reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) has emerged as the gold standard method for diagnosis and, by extension, for early… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of AOAC International"

DOI: 10.1093/jaoacint/qsac140

Abstract: BACKGROUND Cannabis species have a propensity to bioaccumulate toxic heavy metals from their growth media. Increased testing for these metals is required to improve the safety of the legal medical and recreational cannabis industries. However,… read more here.
