Summary: SUMMARYThis document describes the procedure for performing RTPCR amplification for next-generation sequencing (NGS) of whole genomes from SARS-CoV2 positive clinical samples. This methodology was employed at the Respiratory Virus Unit, Microbiology Services Colindale, Public Health England (RVU-PHE) to sequence the first SARS-CoV2 positive samples.Reverse transcription (RT) is performed using random hexamer primers. PCR amplification is done using sequence-specific primers which amplify two sets of 30-31 overlapping amplicons (size 1.0 to 1.8 kb), each set independently covering the entire length of the MERS-CoV genome. Once amplicons are obtained, rough equimolar mixtures, clean-up, DNA quantitation and final dilutions are performed to prepare samples for library preparation for Illumina MiSeq next-generation sequencing (NGS). Primers from set A do not overlap location of primers from set B, except for those binding at the end of the genome (see figure 1). Amplicon mixtures from each set are treated as separate samples throughout the procedure, including assembly. Merging (or comparison) of consensus sequences of both sets is performed at the end. IMPORTANT: Please note that every amplicon is obtained in a separate PCR reaction and, if using both primer sets, there is a total of ~61 PCR reactions; this protocol is NOT a multiplex approach. We recommend using a 96-well plate per sample.ADVANTAGES AND LIMITATIONSThe use of both primer sets allows for redundancy in whole genome (WG) coverage, which increases the chances of obtaining full genome sequences when samples have low viral load. Although we haven’t formally determined the sensitivity of this assay (or limit of amplification of WG), we have obtained full coverage with samples with CT values of up to 38 (CT value obtained at RVU-PHE with RdRp gene detection within the SARS-CoV2 detection protocol as described by Corman et al. [1]). Variation in storage or transport conditions of samples may affect the integrity of viral nucleic acids.Another advantage of this protocol is that, as primers from set A and B match different locations on the genome, direct comparison of the sequences obtained with each set allows for curation of primer-induced contamination of the sequences, although we deal with this with a specific step on the bioinformatic assembly pipeline (not described here).Alternatively, when samples have a relatively good CT (The main limitation of this protocol is its unsuitability for high throughput processing of large batches of samples, although current efforts are being made to adapt the primers to a multiplex approach.

Summary: This SOP describes the procedure for generating cDNA from SARS-CoV-2 viral nucleic acid extracts and subsequently producing 400nt amplicons tiling the viral genome using V3 nCov-2019 primers (ARTIC) in multiplex PCR. Illumina-compatible sequencing libraries are then made directly from these amplicons in a second PCR step, obviating the need for conventional library preparation. The products of these PCRs are then equivolume pooled and quantitated, prior to sequencing on the Illumina NovaSeq.It is an adaptation of the COVID-19 ARTIC v3 amplicon protocol which can be found here:https://www.protocols.io/view/covid-19-artic-v3-illumina-library-construction-an-bibtkannBoth the above protocols were adapted from the nCov-2019 sequencing protocol: https://www.protocols.io/view/ncov-2019-sequencing-protocol-bbmuik6w

Summary: This protocol describes the steps required to perform a holographic immunoassay for SARS-CoV-2 whole virus particles. The assay uses an xSight holographic particle characterization instrument (Spheryx, Inc.) to monitor the diameter of specifically functionalized probe beads. The diameter of the beads increases by a few nanometers as targets bind to the surface. xSight detects and reports this change, yielding an estimate for the concentration of analytes in the sample. The method for holographic immunoassays (applied to antibody binding assays) is described inY. Zagzag, M. F. Soddu, A. D. Hollingsworth and D. G. Grier, Holographic molecular binding assays, Scientific Reports 10, 1932 (2020) and K. Snyder, R. Quddus, A. D. Hollingsworth and K.

Summary: Purpose of examination / Clinical relevanceAt the end of 2019, several pneumonia cases were reported in Wuhan, China and the pathogen was confirmed as a new viral strain. World Health organization has named the newly identified coronavirus as 2019-nCoV, also known as SARS-Cov-2. The disease developed into a dangerous pandemic, posing major challenges to the NHS. Although more research is necessary to better understand the virus, in response to the emergency, simple and rapid testing is essential to identify the virus in infected individuals. This will aid the implementation of efficient interventions to contain the spread, and distinguish healthcare workers who have been infected, and are required to self-isolate, from those showing similar symptoms but which are not 2019-nCoV associated. The latter category may continue to work, alleviating stress on hard-pressed healthcare resources. 2019-nCoV is an RNA virus, and the diagnostic tests detect viral RNA in swabs from patient airways using a reverse transcriptase PCR assay. Samples are submitted to HSL, an accredited reporting laboratory, and transferred to the Crick for testing. The first step of the process is sample receipt at the Crick. This SOP describes the inactivation of the virus.

Summary: This protocol details recommendations for collecting and processing saliva for SARS-CoV-2 detection, as used in Wyllie et al. 2020, which details results of testing saliva collected from COVID-19+ inpatients and asymptomatic healthcare workers.COVID-19 inpatients. Saliva samples were self-collected by the patient. Upon waking, patients were asked to avoid food, water and brushing of teeth until the sample was collected. Patients were asked to repeatedly spit into a sterile 90 mL specimen collection cup until roughly a quarter full of liquid (excluding bubbles), before securely closing it. For patients unable to provide saliva (such as those on mechanical ventilation), clinical teams were advised that suction could be used to collect saliva into the cup (or a sputum trap container for improved containment and safety). Collected volumes ranged from 0.5 - 20 mL. All saliva samples were stored at room temperature and transported to the research lab at the Yale School of Public Health within 5 hours of collection, with RNA for SARS-CoV-2 detection extracted within 12 hours of collection. When possible, saliva samples were stored at +4°C, otherwise they were kept at room temperature.Asymptomatic healthcare workers. Asymptomatic healthcare workers were asked to collect ~10 mL of saliva into a sterile specimen collection cup. No specific instructions were given regarding food intake etc prior to collection. Samples were delivered to the research lab at the Yale School of Public Health within 6 hours of collection and stored for up to 6 hours at +4°C until aliquoting for RNA extraction. Samples collected on overnight shifts were stored at +4°C before delivery to the research lab.

Summary: This SOP describes pre-analytical procedures to be followed for the isolation and identification of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in influent wastewater samples from wastewater treatment plants. PEG precipitation is used to concentrate viruses in the samples. The concentrated pellet is recovered and resuspended to be utilized for the next steps of the protocol. Bovine coronavirus is used as a recovery control for the concentration step. The RNA extraction is acheived using a commercial kit and an inhibitor removal kit is used to remove inhibitors that were co-extracted with the RNA. The RNA from this protocol can be used in droplet digital RT-PCR assays. A protocol for the dd-RTPCR assays is available from our group. Biosafety ConcernsConcentration and extraction procedures that utilize raw samples must adhere to strict Biosafety Level 2+ procedures. These procedures should be performed in a dedicated room. Downstream products may be handled using standard laboratory safety guidelines.

Summary: Our limited findings: This “DIY folding mask” tries to replicate some of the benefits of a n95 mask. It has been saccharin tested by several nurses and an NP. I cannot say these are as effective as a factory n95 mask because of course a real one would be better. But I tested it against a CDC recommended bandana and scarf and it seems to out perform them. It also seems to outperform the surgical mask.

Summary: With the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants that may increase transmissibility and/or cause escape from immune responses, there is an urgent need for targeted molecular surveillance methods. While sequencing is the gold standard, it cannot always be immediately scaled or implemented in some settings to detect variants when their frequencies are low. The Applied Biosystems TaqPath COVID-19 assay (ThermoFisher), a PCR test, was discovered to have a distinct signature (spike gene target failure, [SGTF]) when testing viruses containing the Δ69/70 HV deletion, like the B.1.1.7 variant first detected in the UK. However, a sample with a SGTF is not definitive for B.1.1.7, and cannot detect other variants of concern that lack the Δ69/70 HV deletion, such as B.1.351 detected in South Africa and P.1 recently detected in Brazil. We developed a multiplexed RT-qPCR assay that can detect all three variants by targeting the Δ3675-3677 SGF deletion in the ORF1a gene, which has not yet been widely detected in other SARS-CoV-2 lineages. Furthermore, by also targeting the Δ69/70 HV deletion in the spike gene, our assay can differentiate B.1.1.7 from B.1.351 and P.1. Finally, we include the CDC N1 primer and probe set in our multiplexed assay as a control to ensure that target failures are likely due to the presence of the ORF1a and/or spike deletions and that there is sufficient virus RNA for sequencing confirmation. Our multiplexed RT-qPCR assay can be rapidly scaled to support SARS-CoV-2 variant surveillance.

Summary: SalivaDirect is an RNA-extraction free, dual-plexed RT-qPCR method for SARS-CoV-2 detection. It can be broadly implemented as it (1) does not require saliva collection tubes containing preservatives, (2) does not require specialized equipment for RNA extraction, and (3) is validated for use with products from multiple vendors. Thus, the simplicity and flexibility of SalivaDirect means that it is not as affected by supply chain bottlenecks as some other assays. Our method is RNA-extraction free which enables testing of low volume and minimally processed saliva in dual-plexed RT-qPCR for SARS-CoV-2 detection. Saliva will be treated with proteinase K followed by a heat inactivation step, and is then directly used as input in the dual-plexed RT-qPCR test. Our aim was not to design new primers and probes for RT-qPCR testing, but rather to use validated primer and probe sets (N1 and RP) developed by the US CDC. The human Ribonuclease P (RP) probe was modified with a different fluorophore so that the primer/probe set could be combined in a dualplex assay, reducing the number of tests to 1 assay with 2 sets.Version 2 includes: Optimized thermocycler conditionsLocally validated alternative options for Proteinase K, RT-qPCR master mix, and thermocyclersUse of 8-strip tubes for sample processing step, due to contamination issues in 96-well plates.Version 3 has been updated to remove steps for sample self-collection.

Summary: This protocol was used to enrich for SARS-CoV2 sequencing reads from a confirmed COVID-19 swab sample and attain the full genome using an iSeq100. By using a spiked primer approach with 73 primers spanning the entire SARS-CoV2 genome, we were able to get an average of 15x genome coverage on an iSeq100 with 1.8 million paired end-reads. Here we overview all the steps, from sample extraction, library preparation with a spiked primer enrichment step, and sequencing on an iSeq100. The collaborative effort involved the Manning Lab, NIAID in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, Institut Pasteur Cambodge, Cambodia Ministry of Health, the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub, and the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative.This approach was developed based on the work from Deng et al, Nature Microbiology, January 13, 2020. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41564-019-0637-9
