Optimal storage protocols of wastewater samples for SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection

Optimal storage protocols of wastewater samples for SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic continues to spread among millions of people worldwide, scientists search for reliable ways to monitor it and predict new outbreaks. Several reports have dealt with the quantitative detection of the causative pathogen, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), in wastewater. A new preprint released on the medRxiv server by researchers at the University of Innsbruck, Austria, takes this further in order to establish the limits of storage procedures while working on viral surveillance in this area. The detection of the virus in wastewater offers the chance to carry out viral monitoring in a large population, including those with and without symptoms of infection. However, these samples often need to be stored until collection from different wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) is complete.
