    Snippet: To demonstrate the utility of this smart molecular diagnostic we detect both Asian and African lineage ZIKV, which can differ by as much as 12%, 29 and cleanly distinguish them from otherwise related and often co-circulating dengue virus (DENV) and chikungunya virus (CHIKV). As few as 100 ZIKV virions could be readily detected by direct analysis of artificially-infected human saliva. Pilot studies with un-infected and ZIKV-infected Aedes aegypti .....
    Document: To demonstrate the utility of this smart molecular diagnostic we detect both Asian and African lineage ZIKV, which can differ by as much as 12%, 29 and cleanly distinguish them from otherwise related and often co-circulating dengue virus (DENV) and chikungunya virus (CHIKV). As few as 100 ZIKV virions could be readily detected by direct analysis of artificially-infected human saliva. Pilot studies with un-infected and ZIKV-infected Aedes aegypti mosquitoes suggest that the integrated computations performed by our smart molecular diagnostic yield results that are on par with qRT-PCR, and for the first time demonstrate 100% specificity and sensitivity in a true POC format.
