Researchers from the University of Arizona are developing a smartphone coronavirus test which will hopefully deliver test results within a matter of minutes.
This new test will reportedly use a smartphone microscope to analyze saliva samples, and could well deliver results within the space of about 10 minutes.
The research team, led by biomedical engineering professor Jeong-Yeol Yoon, plan to combine the speed of existing nasal swab antigen tests with the highly accurate onasal swab polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests.
