Thomas A, Oliver E, Baum H, Gupta K, Shelley K, Long A, et al.
Commun Med (Lond) . 2023 Mar; 3(1):37. PMID: 36922542
Background: Saliva is easily obtainable non-invasively and potentially suitable for detecting both current and previous SARS-CoV-2 infection, but there is limited evidence on the utility of salivary antibody testing for...

Halliday A, Long A, Baum H, Thomas A, Shelley K, Oliver E, et al.
Front Immunol . 2022 Nov; 13:968317. PMID: 36439154
Low-volume antibody assays can be used to track SARS-CoV-2 infection rates in settings where active testing for virus is limited and remote sampling is optimal. We developed 12 ELISAs detecting...
