SARS-CoV-2 in Stools Compared to Respiratory Viral Strains. (Spread-COVID)

October 1, 2022 updated by: Evelyne Schvoerer, Central Hospital, Nancy, France

SARS-CoV-2 in Stools Compared to Respiratory Viral Strains, in Patients Hospitalized for COVID-19.

The aim of the study is to characterize and to quantify SARS-CoV-2 strains in stools, in comparison with the viral strains in respiratory samples, from patients hospitalized for COVID-19. The methods will be standard ddPCR quantifying SARS-CoV-2 RNA and next generation sequencing-whole genome sequencing. The expected results will allow us to better understand SARS-CoV-2 dynamics and compartmentalization, both in the respiratory tract and in digestive-related tissues, according to the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 variants.
