Comparing 0.9% sterile saline to phosphate buffered saline as a transport media for Tritrichomonas foetus RT-qPCR testing

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: The limit of detection for T. foetus RT-qPCR is 1 organism/extraction in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) without prior culture. The objective of this study was to determine if 0.9% sterile saline (SAL), a readily available media, was not inferior to PBS as a transport media for T. foetus RT-qPCR testing at that concentration.
