ARUP Laboratories Now Offers COVID-19 Saliva Testing – Available with Preapproval to ARUP Clients Nationwide
ARUP Laboratories will perform the test only on saliva specimens collected using an ARUP collection kit with a healthcare provider present. ARUP validated the test using its kit on high-throughput instruments, and cannot perform it on other saliva specimens without jeopardizing quick turnaround times, said Adam Barker, Ph.D., director of ARUP's new COVID-19 Rapid Response Lab.
