Experimental and Mathematical Optimization of a Pooling Test for Detection of SARS-CoV-2 in a Population with Low Viral Load

BACKGROUND: A pooling test is a useful tool for mass screening of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the pandemic era. We aimed to optimize a simple two-step pooling test by estimating the optimal pool size using experimental and mathematical validation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Experimental pools...
