Pooled Sample Test?

With the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, doing a good job in viral nucleic acid detection is the top priority. However, detection of the virus is still limited due to resource constraints. Pooled sample testing offers a way to significantly improve testing power.

“mixed nucleic acid test”  or “Pooled Sample Test”, referred to as “mixed test”.

Which means that two or more samples are mixed and tested. method for positive samples.

     What is the difference between the “mixed collection” of community nucleic acid testing and the “single collection” of the hospital?

    Why do community streets adopt the mixed mining model?

    Under what circumstances should I test individually?

What is pooled COVID testing?

The so-called “mixed detection” of nucleic acid.

Takes throat swab samples from multiple people and puts them together for viral nucleic acid detection.

Pooled Sample Test VTM Kits

Pooled Sample Test VTM Kits

In fact, Medical use of Pooled Samples is common.

In blood collection systems such as apheresis stations.

We use pooled samples to detect the presence of infectious disease antigens and antibodies in pooled samples of multiple people.

There are two modes of “mixed detection”. One is to sample several people, such as 3 or 5 people and put them into the same sampling tube.

The other is to mix samples of the same volume from 3 or 5 people during laboratory testing, also known as “sample mixing”.

From a scientific point of view, the first “mixed sampling” mode will not affect the sensitivity of nucleic acid detection. While the latter mode of mixed detection of samples has a certain impact on the sensitivity of the detection,  the degree of impact is controllable.

In order to detect high-risk groups, such as symptomatic patients and close contacts in fever clinics, we still recommend separate sampling.

For screening of low-risk groups, pooled sample test is our first choice.

Is the mixed detection technology reliable?

Is the “five-in-one” and “ten-in-one” mixed mining detection technology reliable?

“The size of the single-collection tube and the mixed-collection tube are different, and the amount of the preservation solution is also different.

Based on the results of a large number of basic experimental research and practical operations in the previous period.

The increase in the volume of the mixed-collection preservation solution has no effect on the detection results of weakly positive specimens.”

In the case of an extremely low positive rate, the 10-in-1 mixed detection technology is very efficient.

The FDA is aware that there is a great interest in performing testing using pooled samples.

This approach increases the number of individuals who can be tested with the same amount of resources.

What are the benefits of mixed nucleic acid detection?

The hybrid detection of nucleic acid has greatly improved the nucleic acid detection capability, reduced the burden of personal testing costs, and did not affect the time for issuing the test report.

The testing time of a single test and mixed test laboratory is the same, but compared with a single test, the mixed test is more suitable for mass and group screening.

In the case of small-scale outbreaks, the use of mixed detection can improve efficiency, play the role of multiple screening, early diagnosis, reduce transmission, and save social costs.

Whether the population is suitable for mixed testing shall be carried out in accordance with the requirements of the provincial and municipal epidemic prevention and control headquarters,

The medical institutions carrying out the testing must follow the technical requirements and standards of the municipal health department.

Which groups recommend the single purchase and single inspection?

It is worth mentioning that single sampling and single inspection are recommended for specific populations.

The above notice specifically mentioned that COVID-19 nucleic acid 10 in 1 and 5 in one mixed detection technology is suitable for large-scale rapid screening of the low-risk populations, and is more suitable when the overall positive rate of population is low (0.1%).

However, for the detection of high-risk groups such as symptomatic patients, close contacts and people in key areas in fever clinics.

Recommended to adopt single sampling and single detection.

What should I pay attention to when doing pooled sample detection?

1. When going to the testing point for nucleic acid testing, wear a mask, and it is best to prepare one or two spare masks.

2. Two hours before the swab test, it is recommended not to eat to avoid vomiting during the test.

3. When waiting for the test, remember to keep a distance of more than one meter between the front and rear personnel to avoid close contact.

4. Whether it is doing swab testing or getting the report, it needs to be certified as one, so be sure to bring ID cards, receipts and other materials, so as to avoid incomplete materials at that time, which will affect the testing and reporting.

How to Swab For Covid Test

Since the outbreak of novel coronavirus pneumonia, we must have experienced nucleic acid testing. Covid swab test Nucleic acid detection plays a very important role in the process of infection diagnosis of COVID-19. It can not only find asymptomatic patients in the incubation period as much as possible but also greatly reduce the risk of infection.

Nucleic acid detection is so important. Next, Dr Li will take you to have an in-depth understanding of the relevant principles of nucleic acid detection, the difference between mixed collection and single collection of nucleic acid detection, and the matters needing attention in nucleic acid detection, to help you better protect yourself while popularizing knowledge.

To understand nucleic acid detection, we must understand the detection principle. Let’s take a look at its detection principle first.

The doctor is testing the patient's nasopharynx swab

What is the principle of nucleic acid detection?

Nucleic acid, the genetic factor of the virus, is a macromolecular chain composed of four nucleotides. Different molecules represent different nucleotides and form a long chain. Nucleic acid detection is through the detection of nucleic acid in the chain, and this segment of nucleic acid is COVID-19 specific, other viruses do not.

Pcr test nasal swab and an antigen test difference for covid 19

Pcr test nasal swab and an antigen test difference for covid 19

The substance detected by the nucleic acid is the nucleic acid of the virus. At present, the detection technology is mainly through PCR (polymerase chain reaction) technology to detect the nucleic acid of the virus. During the detection, the nucleic acid chain of COVID-19 was used as the detection target, and the target gene sequence was amplified by PCR Test, which was combined with a fluorescent labelled probe added in the test reagent to produce a fluorescence signal.

The three forms of nucleic acid detection have their advantages.

Nasal swab test

This test method is to insert the test swab vertically into the nostril. And gently rotate the swab, stay in the nasal cavity for about 15 seconds, to test.

Compared with throat swabs, nasal swab testing is more accurate for inexperienced testing personnel. And the risk of exposure is lower. However, it is not suitable for some patients with nasal allergies, high blood pressure and people who take anticoagulation and antiplatelet for a long time.

Throat swab test

At present, the most widely used detection method is also a form that is often used by everyone. During the sampling process, the patient opened his mouth and made an “ah” sound, and the testing personnel used a sterilized cotton swab to gently and quickly wipe the pharyngeal lateral wall and posterior pharyngeal wall of the subject many times.

COVID-19 Testing:PCR swab test,antibody test, and antigen test difference

COVID-19 Testing: Throat swab test

Throat swab testing: Often used in the testing process because it is more convenient and fast to collect, and it is more acceptable to the public, but the risk of exposure is also greater.

Anal swab test

This test method is a method of inserting a test swab into the anus and taking a sample at the fold of the anus or taking a sample at 2 to 3 cm for a new coronavirus test.

Many patients reject anal swab testing, but anal swabs can improve the accuracy of testing for new coronavirus infections to a certain extent. Some patients indeed have negative throat swabs, but positive ones are detected by anal swabs. In some patients, the anal swab test was still positive after the other two tests turned negative.

Why do multiple nucleic acid tests need to be performed?

Multiple nucleic acid tests are necessary for epidemic prevention and control.
A negative nucleic acid test does not mean that the tested person is not at risk of infection. Any detection method has the possibility of errors, especially in high-risk areas. To ensure the accuracy of the inspection results and better prevent and control the spread of the epidemic, multiple rounds of inspections must be carried out. There are also the following reasons for taking multiple rounds of detection:

After virus infection, the human body has a certain value-added period. When testing, if the virus in the body does not reach a certain concentration, we may not detect the virus.

When the specimen was collected, due to the different sampling methods, no virus cells were collected. False-negative specimens can also lead to inaccurate collection results.

Errors in the transportation process and storage of samples for inspection will also affect the results of nucleic acid testing.

Therefore, for risk areas and special populations, multiple rounds of nucleic acid testing must be carried out to more accurately and effectively detect the virus source, so as to better and more accurately prevent and control and identify infected people, and cut off the source of the virus. No matter what kind of inspection process, attention must be paid.

Three key points for oral swab collection!

The oral swab is an all-in-one system that can collect, stabilize, transport and purify DNA from saliva in advance, providing a painless and risk-free new way to collect microbial DNA for disease control and prevention.

Accidentally, it is easy to cause people to be infected with the new coronavirus, and the surface detection is not sensitive, and the operation is easy to lead to standardized operation.

Awareness Check Tool:

Testing equipment for testing equipment, including testing tools for testing equipment, testing equipment for testing equipment, testing equipment for testing equipment, including safety testing equipment.

Virus Sampling Tube & Nasopharyngeal Swab (Inactivated)

Virus Sampling Tube & Nasopharyngeal Swab (Inactivated)

Oropharyngeal sampling points:

1. Sufficient light: Good lighting should be provided for both indoor and outdoor light sources. If necessary, flashlight lighting should also be provided.

2. Full exposure: The three anatomical locations for oropharyngeal swab collection must be completely exposed, and a spatula should be used when exposing bilateral tonsils.

3. Accurate location: The oropharyngeal swab should not touch other parts, such as the tongue, chin, etc., except for the three designated locations, so as not to be stained with saliva and affect the quality of specimen collection.

Covid Mouth Swab Test Pre-harvest preparation

Routine screening:

Work clothes, medical protective face shield, work cap, gloves, isolation gown, goggles (anti-fog) or face shield.

Influenza or suspected cases:

Wear work clothes, medical protective masks, work caps, gloves, isolation gowns or protective clothing, goggles (anti-fog) or protective face shields, and add shoe covers or boot covers if necessary.

Order of protective clothing:

Work caps that do not need to be worn. → Protective masks (Wearable head-mounted type and a tightness test should be performed after wearing them.)→ No shoes protective clothing (Boot covers should be added instead of foot protective clothing.) → Surgical gloves. → Protective screen or goggles.

Employee Registration Protection:

Tooling or isolation gown. → Medical-surgical mask or medical protective face shield. → Disposable work cap.

Protective clothing should be replaced every 4 hours and should be replaced in time if there is moisture or pollution.

Supplies preparation: Throat swab sampling sleeve, tongue depressor, inspection sheet and barcode, transport bag or refrigerator, 75% alcohol, pen.

Nucleic acid collection

1. We asked the examinee to tilt his head slightly, open his mouth.

And lift the upper jaw vertically to expose the posterior pharyngeal wall.

2. Use the front end of a sterile long cotton swab to quickly rub up and down 3-5 times on the bilateral pharyngeal tonsils.

And 3-5 times on the upper and lower sides of the posterior pharyngeal wall.

3. After scraping, open the sampling tube. Insert the front end of the sample vertically into the sampling tube. Insert the sampling tube. Break the sampling tube to expose the outer part of the tube. And tighten the cap.

Place the sampling tube in a biosafety sealed bag, mark the name and other information on the sampling tube, and complete the sampling.

Notice:

1. When sampling with the Covid Mouth Swab Test, it is best not to call “ah”, because once the sampled person is a positive patient, he will shout “ah”, exhale the virus in large quantities, and form aerosols in the sampling area.

When sampling, we advise patients to open their mouths and not yell or take deep breaths.

2. During the sampling process, one person collects and one person disinfects.

When the sampler holds the cotton swab, try to take it as far as possible.

3. A large number of samplers collect oropharyngeal swabs face-to-face with the sampled person.

Therefore, during the sampling process, the breath exhaled by the patient can easily and directly pose a great threat to the medical staff.

To reduce the risk of the sampler, we recommend that healthcare workers sample at a 45-60 degree angle to reduce risk.

End of Swab Test sampling

1. Spray and disinfect the generated medical waste layer by layer, and tie the gooseneck double medicine bag tightly to ensure that the seal is tight, has no damage, and has no leakage. Do not squeeze the contents of the medical waste bag. Annotation generates point information.

2. The order of unprotected items: hand hygiene → take off the protective face shield or goggles → hand hygiene → take off the protective clothing (take off the boot cover together) → hand hygiene, take off gloves, hand hygiene → take off the protective mask and Disposable work cap → hand hygiene.

Nasopharyngeal Swab Sample

Nasopharyngeal Swab Sample (Nasal Swab)

The nasopharyngeal swab: A specimen collection tool used to collect cell samples from the nasopharynx (above the throat).

When a patient develops an upper respiratory tract infection, doctors can use the collected samples to detect it, especially when the patient still has a fever.

In the experiment, technicians can detect common sources of infection, including potential pathogens such as the new crown and swine flu.

How is the COVID-19 nasal swab test performed?

Such tests can be uncomfortable for patients, but can quickly identify serious respiratory illnesses, especially those that require isolation or infection prevention measures to protect other patients.

Doctors can use cell cultures to determine the type of current infection. Factory-produced nasopharyngeal swabs cannot use natural substances such as cotton, as they may contain some impurities that will affect the detection.

Nasopharyngeal Swab materials

The nasopharyngeal swabs produced and sold by Cell Medical Company are flocked materials. Learn more about flocked swabs.

flocked swab

CellMedical flocked swabs are famous for their stable and reliable performance and excellent absorption and elution ability.

In general, a caregiver can place a sealed package (safety bag) next to the patient, and the caregiver places a sample container next to the patient, which contains a culture medium that maintains cellular and microbial viability for evaluation. This is the viral transport medium.

Laboratory technicians can detect the source of infection through nasopharyngeal swabs, and they should wear gloves and masks when collecting nasopharyngeal swabs.

Face protection is an effective measure to prevent patients from contracting respiratory diseases.

Nasopharyngeal swab collection

When taking the sample, gently insert the swab into the nose by hand, pushing it all the way to the nasopharynx. Patients often experience discomfort, convulsions, or spasms; for this, they sometimes need to suppress this response by leaning their heads against a wall or pillow.

When the nasopharyngeal swab is fully in, the caregiver can briefly swirl to collect the cell mixture, remove it, and place it in the specimen collection container. (Virus sampling tube)

After the sampler obtains the sample, he should immediately send it to the laboratory for PCR testing.

Waiting or not storing at low temperature may kill microorganisms that may be present in the sample, resulting in false-negative test results.

Patients usually get results within a day or two.

Inspection is capable of scanning for many common microorganisms.

When infectious diseases appear in epidemic areas, nasopharyngeal swabs and other microorganisms can be labelled to detect new crowns, swine flu and other microorganisms.

The doctor can try the test results to guide the patient’s treatment.

They can also help epidemiologists track the movement of diseases in the community, which is very useful for controlling disease outbreaks.

What’s The Difference Between COVID-19 Rapid and PCR Tests?

What’s The Difference Between COVID-19 Rapid and PCR Tests?

What’s The Difference Between COVID-19 Rapid and PCR Tests?

As New Year’s Day approaches, the number of new crown infections is also rising. Therefore, once you have symptoms of infection. Or you are exposed to the new coronavirus. If you are going to an environment with a high risk of infection.

You must continue to be tested.

Currently two COVID-19 detection methods-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test (also known as reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction test) and a rapid antigen test.

So, which detection method should we choose? What is the difference between the two?

On the COVID-19 website, terms such as PCR, rapid test, and antibody test are difficult to understand and which one is correct for you. In this article, our goal is to explain the difference between the two most common tests for diagnosing COVID-19: rapid antigen test and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test.

Rapid antigen test

Antigen test (often called rapid test). This test detects protein fragments specific to coronavirus. We can do the antigen test in a clinic, doctor’s office or hospital. The turnaround time for results is usually very fast, and in some cases, we can get report results within 15 minutes. There are usually false negatives (the results indicate that the patient does not actually have a coronavirus) or false positives (the results indicate that the patient does not actually have the coronavirus).

If you feel unwell and have undergone a rapid negative test, you may need to undergo a PCR test for further confirmation. However, when someone is at the peak of infection, rapid antigen testing usually provides accurate results because this is when the virus levels in the body are highest.

The rapid antigen test is usually used as a screening tool to detect that you may be infected with the new crown, but PCR monitoring is required to confirm the final result.

Although a negative rapid antigen test result does not necessarily mean that you are not infected, it at least protects your contacts than not testing at all.

PCR TEST

PCR swab tests are similar to rapid tests in several respects because they can be used in symptomatic or asymptomatic patients and can be tested with nasopharyngeal swabs.

The swab test is considered the “gold standard” for SARS-CoV-2 detection. This test actually detects RNA (or genetic material) unique to the virus, and it can detect the virus within a few days of infection, even for those who have no symptoms. This test can be performed in a clinic, hospital or even in your car. The turnaround time is longer, generally in the range of 2-3 days, but the result may be within 24 hours. When the demand is high, the result may take a week or more.

What if the rapid test is negative but there are still symptoms?

The current recommendation is that if you still have symptoms and the rapid test is negative, you should have a confirmation test (PCR test). This is especially true if you have high-risk exposures. High-risk exposure is considered to be contacted with a COVID-19 positive individual for more than 15 minutes within 24 hours, and the distance between you and the individual is no more than 6 feet.

What kind of test should be done? When will it be done?

RT-PCR (reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction) detection if the following situations occur:

1. Symptoms of new crown infection appear.
2. Having contact with people infected with the new crown.
3. The rapid antigen test result is positive, and PCR identification is required.
4. The Ministry of Health requires testing before lifting the quarantine.
5. The Ministry of Health requires that an inspection must be carried out before obtaining permission to travel to a certain area.

If you want a quick antigen test:

1. Have a plan to go to a place with a high risk of infection.

2. Contact with high-risk groups (such as the elderly) and hope to protect them.
3. You have symptoms of COVID-19, but you cannot go to the PCR test site.
4. Activities with a large number of participants in the field, if indoor activities are carried out, the risk of infection is greater.
5. Check whether you have the SARS-CoV-2 virus as soon as possible.
6. Participate in regular COVID monitoring projects.
