The investigators have created a biorepository of stool, saliva, nasopharyngeal swab specimens, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, serum, and plasma from SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals for research purposes. The multifaceted biorepository will be used to establish markers predicting various presentations of COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019).
The NoCo-CoBio Project is a biobanking effort to store and preserve saliva, nasopharyngeal, stool and blood specimens from SARS-CoV-2 PCR (polymerase chain reaction) positive individuals.
