Matrix recovery
A matrix recovery control (also called a process control) is a non-SARS-CoV-2 virus spiked into a wastewater sample at a known concentration prior to processing. This control is used to understand viral recovery, defined as the amount of virus lost during sample processing, and is important for comparing SARS-CoV-2 concentrations in wastewater over time. Viral recovery estimates can be incorporated into SARS-CoV-2 wastewater data by dividing the measured concentration of SARS-CoV-2 by the fraction of matrix recovery control recovered. The fraction of matrix recovery control recovered is the amount of non-SARS-CoV-2 virus measured after processing divided by the amount of non-SARS-CoV-2 virus spiked into the sample before processing.
