Abstract
High-throughput, high-accuracy detection of emerging viruses is crucial for controlling outbreaks. This paper presents a novel method for detecting coronaviruses using nanopores and artificial intelligence, eliminating the need for RNA extraction. The platform, termed the artificially intelligent nanopore, accurately identified four coronaviruses (HCoV-229E, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2) in saliva samples with 90% sensitivity and 96% specificity within 5 minutes.
