A Human Clinical Study to Collect Calibration and Performance Data for the RBA-2 Device

The current available diagnostic methods used for the detection of COVID-19 takes up to 4 hours. In some cases, these diagnostics tests make take up to a couple of days. As it is highly contagious, people who are in close contact with the infected person are at high risk of being infected. COVID-19 is transmitted through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. The desire for rapid detection of COVID-19 has become an immediate necessity. The purpose of Kaligia Biosciences' saliva monitoring device (RBA-2) is to detect the presence of the COVID-19 virus in human saliva. The RBA-2 uses Raman Spectros-copy to detect the coronavirus. Once the sample is scanned successfully, the spectra contains the response of the component present in human saliva and provide results in a matter of minutes, rather than hours or days.
