Analytical Toilet for Detecting Viruses in Feces
An analytical toilet is disclosed. The analytical toilet includes a bowl adapted to receive excreta and a detection system to detect a virus, such as a coronavirus. The analytical toilet presents a sample extracted from feces to the detection system and the detection system creates a signal indicating whether or not a coronavirus is present in the sample. Preferably, the detection system comprises a quantitative PCR instrument and a fluorimeter.
