Abstract

Biomarkers are biological molecules widely used to determine disease stages. Clinical diagnostic tests in the SARS-CoV-2 infection, both  direct  and indirect,  rely  on biomarkers. Direct  biomarkers are  based  on  the identification of viral genome sequences, such as RT-qPCR diagnostics, those based on CRISPR-Cas9 systems, or direct sequencing  of  the  viral  genome  by  nanopores  (LampPORE).  Indirect  tests  are  based on the identification of biomarkers in response  to the disease, such as serological  tests, where  IgM and      IgG are identified. Ongoing, new test based on biosensors, differences in the metabolic status of the tissue, computer-assisted study of radiological images, or salivary sampling, become a new paradigm. Having faster diagnostic tests will enable to trace the evolution of the disease in the population, so its use is essential.
