“We would like to thank Spectrum Solutions for playing such an integral role in Major League Baseball’s return to the field in 2020. We needed a safe, reliable, and non-invasive way to regularly test and monitor players and Club personnel this season. Spectrum has proven to be the best option available for our ongoing needs. We appreciate Spectrum’s support, collaboration, and assistance during this challenging time.”

“I call it innovation under pressure, the tests can be self-administered by patients in health care settings, which will reduce exposure for medical workers and save personal protective equipment.”

“A tremendous advance to current COVID-19 sample collection strategies, SDNA-1000 saliva collection device creates the most robust and safest biomaterial collection approach for the detection of COVID-19 infection with 100% inactivation of the live virus.”

“Saliva is a better diagnostic sample for COVID-19 testing than nasopharyngeal swabs. Widespread use of saliva sampling could be transformative for public health efforts. Our experiment also detected SARS-CoV-2 from the saliva of two asymptomatic healthcare workers who tested negative from their nasopharyngeal swabs.”

“The saliva-based test actually looks like it performs better than the normal testing, which requires a swab from the nose.”

“Salt Lake City doesn’t have an MLB team, but it’s now the league’s most important city! Bringing Baseball Back.”

“The plus side is the immense benefit at the population level for a less invasive option than the current nose and throat swab collection methods for COVID-19.”

“…This provides an additional option for the easy, safe and convenient collection of samples required for testing without traveling to a doctor’s office, hospital or testing site…”

“The logistics of testing all students coming back to campus with enough time to turn around test results before their arrival meant we had to collaborate with partners capable of overcoming these challenges, Vault Health and Rutgers’ RUCDR Infinite Biologics lab are among the best at what they do. This is what we wanted for our students.”
