Journal ArticleDOI
Empowering academic labs and scientists to test for COVID-19.
J. Jordan Steel,John C Sitko,Matthew G Adkins,Steven Cm Hasstedt,Joseph W Rohrer,Erin A. Almand +5 more
TL;DR: By empowering nonmedical academic scientists with preexisting knowledge, expertise with the protocols, and access to the instruments, an additional 1.5 million COVID-19 tests could be processed each day at local universities and academic labs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fizzle Testing: An Equation Utilizing Random Surveillance to Help Reduce COVID-19 Risks
Christopher A Cullenbine,Joseph W Rohrer,Erin A. Almand,J. Jordan Steel,Matthew T. Davis,Christopher M. Carson,Steven Cm Hasstedt,John C Sitko,Douglas P. Wickert +8 more
TL;DR: Expected infection load and how testing policy can prevent outbreaks in an institution are illustrated and responsive policies scaling the amount of surveillance testing based on prior testing results are developed, further conserving resources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficiency of pooled surveillance testing in academic labs to detect and inhibit COVID-19 outbreaks.
John C Sitko,J. Jordan Steel,Erin A. Almand,Christopher A Cullenbine,Joseph W Rohrer,Douglas P. Wickert,Steven Cm Hasstedt +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a strategy of pooling samples, reducing reagent cost and processing time, was employed to mitigate resource limitations, and successful pooled surveillance testing was conducted throughout Fall 2020 semester to detect positive SARS-CoV-2 infections in a population of 4400 students.
