Resumo: Objective: To show the feasibility of using combined nasopharyngeal swab auto-collection and pool testing to detect SARS-CoV-2 in epidemiological surveys. Methods: The study involved a sample of 154 students from the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, who performed the self-collection of the nasopharyngeal swab in individual booths without supervision. Molecular testing was performed using the pool testing technique. Results: Obtaining samples lasted about 5 minutes each. Analysis 6 was performed to detect endogenous RNA in 40 samples, and the results indicated that no failures resulted from self-collection. None of the pools detected the presence of viral RNA. The cost of performing the molecular test (RT-PCR) by pool testing with samples obtained by self-collection was about 10 times lower than with the usual methods. Conclusion: The investigated strategies showed to be economically feasible and valid for the research of SARS-CoV-2 in epidemiological surveys.

Métodos: El estudio involucró a una muestra de 154 estudiantes de la Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, quienes realizaron la autocolección del hisopo nasofaríngeo en cabinas individuales sin supervision. La prueba molecular se realizó utilizando la técnica de prueba de grupo. Resultados: La obtención de muestras duró unos 5 minutos por persona. Se realizó un análisis para detectar RNA endógeno en 40 muestras y los resultados indicaron que no hubo fallas derivadas de la autocolección. Ninguno de los grupos detectó la presencia de RNA viral. El costo de realizar una prueba molecular (RT-PCR) por pool con muestras obtenidas por auto-recolección fue aproximadamente 10 veces menor que con los métodos habituales. Conclusión: Las estrategias investigadas demonstraram ser económicamente viables y válidas para la investigación del SARS-CoV-2 en encuestas epidemiológicas.Objetivo: Demonstrar a viabilidade da utilização combinada da autocoleta de swab nasofaríngeo e pool testing para detecção do SARS-CoV-2 em inquéritos epidemiológicos. Métodos: O estudo envolveu amostra de 154 estudantes da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, que realizaram a autocoleta do swab nasofaríngeo em cabines individuais e sem supervisão. O teste molecular foi realizado utilizando-se a técnica de pool testing. Resultados: A obtenção de amostras durou cerca de 5 minutos por pessoa. Realizou-se análise para detecção de RNA endógeno em 40 amostras e os resultados indicaram que não houve falhas decorrentes da autocoleta. Nenhum dos pools detectou presença de RNA viral. O custo da realização do teste molecular (RT-PCR) por pool testing com amostras obtidas por autocoleta foi cerca de dez vezes menor do que nos métodos habituais. Conclusão: As estratégias investigadas mostraram-se economicamente viáveis e válidas para a pesquisa de SARS-CoV-2 em inquéritos epidemiológicos.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2022-01-05info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/343010.1590/S1679-49742022000100002porhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/3430/6279Copyright (c) 2022 Murilo Soares Costas, Nathalia Sernizon Guimarães, Claudia Regina Lindgren Alves, Eliane Leandro Machado, Hugo Itaru Sato, Eduarda de Carvalho Maia e Amaral, Rafaela Galvão Arivabene, Karine Lima Lourenço, Unaí Tupinambás, Flávio Guimarães da Fonseca, Ricardo Hiroshi Caldeira Takahashi, Santuza Maria Ribeiro Teixeirahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGuimarães, Nathalia SernizonCosta, Murilo Soares Machado, Elaine Leandro Sato, Hugo Itaru Amaral, Eduarda de Carvalho Maia e Arivabene, Rafaela Galvão Lourenço, Karine Lima Tupinambás, Unaí TupinambásFonseca, Flávio Guimarães da Takahashi, Ricardo Hiroshi Caldeira Teixeira, Santuza Maria Ribeiro Alves, Claudia Regina Lindgren reponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2022-01-05T14:00:28Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/3430Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2022-01-05T14:00:28SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
