I just got a nose and a throat PCR test.

我刚刚做了一个鼻咽拭子。

Air has to go from the nose through the nasopharynx into the laryngopharynx, through the larynx and then into the trachea.

空气从鼻腔进入鼻咽部，到达咽喉部，穿过咽喉进入气管。

To enter Japan, travelers need to get a certificate that proves negative results for COVID-19 from nasal swab testing or saliva samples.

入境日本的旅客需持有鼻咽或唾液样本的新冠病毒检测呈阴性的证。

Upon entering the body, the virus encounters the epithelial cells lining the nasopharynx which is the part of your throat nearest your nose.

病毒进入体内后会遇到鼻咽部的胞；鼻咽指的是喉咙靠近鼻子的部位。

Allergies might cause swelling of the tissue in the nasopharynx, or there might be swollen adenoid glands or tonsils because of an infection.

过敏反应可能会引起鼻咽部组织肿胀，或是存在感染引起的腺体或扁桃体肿大。

After several rounds, if there was SARS-CoV-2 RNA in the original sample, you'll have amplified DNA from that sample that can be detected.

在数个循环之后，如鼻咽拭子中存在SARS-CoV-2的病毒RNA，检测人员将会从样本中成功扩增得到DNA。

Specimens were collected in accordance with CDC guidance and included serum and nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swab specimens.

的案例定义。 标本是根据 CDC 指南收集的， 包括血清、鼻咽和口咽拭子标本。

Although it's not always needed, diagnostic testing for RSV can be done by swabbing epithelial cells in the nasopharynx and looking for the presence of viral antigens.

可以通过擦拭鼻咽部胞，检查是否存在病毒抗原，但这一检查并不是人人都必要的。

Now getting a good sample is crucial, so make sure you really get in there, if no virus gets on the swab, then PCR can't detect it.

样本采集十分重要，所以需确保鼻咽拭子探入至鼻道底部，如鼻咽拭子没有病毒样本，PCR就无法探测到病毒。

The initial respiratory specimens (nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs) obtained from this patient on day 4 of his illness were positive for 2019-nCoV (Table 2).

该患者在发病第 4 天采集的初始呼吸道标本（鼻咽和口咽拭子）呈 2019-nCoV 阳性（表 2）。

Nucleic acid was extracted from rRT-PCR–positive specimens (oropharyngeal and nasopharyngeal) and used for whole-genome sequencing on both Sanger and next-generation sequencing platforms (Illumina and MinIon).

从 rRT-PCR 阳性标本（口咽和鼻咽）中提取核酸， 并用于在 Sanger 和下一代测序平台（Illumina 和 MinIon）进行全基因组测序。

You're probably familiar with some of the many weapons in the innate immune system's arsenal, like your skin and the mucus in our nose and throat.

你可能对先天免疫系统武器库中的许多武器很熟悉，比如你的肤和鼻咽部的黏液。

Specimens for repeat 2019-nCoV testing were collected on illness days 7, 11, and 12 and included nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs, serum, and urine and stool samples.

在发病第 7 天、第 11 天和第 12 天收集用于重复 2019-nCoV 检测的标本， 包括鼻咽和口咽拭子、血清以及尿液和粪便样本。

The full genome sequences from oropharyngeal and nasopharyngeal specimens were identical to one another and were nearly identical to other available 2019-nCoV sequences.

来自口咽和鼻咽标本的全基因组序列彼此相同， 并且与其他可用的 2019-nCoV 序列几乎相同。

Like, the authors of a November 2020 paper in Frontiers in Immunology hypothesize that some people do a better job of creating a defensive coating of mucus in their nasopharynx.

比如说，2020年11月发表在《免疫学前沿》杂志的一篇论文的作者假设，有些人在鼻咽部位更容易形成一层具有防御性质的粘液涂层。

Below the nasopharynx and closer to the mouth is the second division of the pharynx, the oropharynx. The palatine tonsils, two rounded massed of lymphatic tissue, are located in the oropharynx.

在鼻咽下方并且更接近口腔的是咽的第二部——口咽，也称作腭扁桃体，为两团圆形的淋巴组织，位于口咽部。

Both collect samples by sticking a swab through your nose but one looks for COVID related protein fragments while the other uses enzymes to seek out the genetic material of COVID-19.

两者都是鼻咽拭子采样，但其中一个对病原菌蛋白进行检测，而另一个通过聚合酶链式反应检测病原菌遗传物质。

But their presence in the nasopharynx is especially important, as that's where respiratory viruses like SARS-CoV-2 usually enter our bodies, and where scientists believe these viruses can hang out and multiply.

但他们在鼻咽中的存在则尤为显著，因为像新冠病毒这样的呼吸道病毒通常是通过鼻咽进入我们的身体，而科学家们则认为是因为病毒能在此逗留和繁殖。

The facial nerve also innervates the sublingual and submandibular glands, which secrete saliva, as well as the lacrimal gland which produces tears, and mucous membranes of the nose, mouth, and nasopharynx.

面神经同时也支配着舌下腺和下颌下腺，它们可以分泌唾液；以及产眼泪的泪腺，还有口、鼻、鼻咽的粘膜。

Nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swab specimens were collected with synthetic fiber swabs; each swab was inserted into a separate sterile tube containing 2 to 3 ml of viral transport medium.

鼻咽和口咽拭子标本采用合成纤维拭子采集； 每个拭子被插入一个单独的无菌试管中， 试管中装有 2 至 3 毫升的病毒转运培养基。
