Sequential Analysis of Viral Load in a Neonate and Her Mother Infected With Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 han2020sequential

The study reports SARS-CoV-2 viral loads in different specimen types for a neonate and her mother diagnosed on 2020-03-20. The study includes nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal, stool, plasma, saliva, and urine samples. Viral loads were extracted manually from Figure 1 using WebPlotDigitizer.

stool_E

From manuscript: “Viral RNA was detected using the PowerChek 2019-nCoV real-time polymerase chain reaction kit (Kogene Biotech, Seoul, Korea) for amplification of the E gene and the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase region of the ORF1b gene, and quantified with a standard curve that was constructed using in vitro transcribed RNA provided from the European Virus Archive.” However, data reported in Figure 1 explicitly refer to the E gene target.

Gene target: E
Participants: 2
Negative samples: 1
Positive samples (not quantifiable): 0
Quantifiable samples: 8
Limit of quantification: unknown
Limit of detection: 5,700.00
