Novel Bioluminescent Quantitative Detection of Nucleic Acid Amplification in Real-Time
BACKGROUND The real-time monitoring of polynucleotide amplification is at the core of most molecular assays. This conventionally relies on fluorescent detection of the amplicon produced, requiring complex and costly hardware, often restricting it to specialised laboratories. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here we report the first real-time, closed-tube luminescent reporter system for nucleic acid amplifi...
متن کاملQuantitative detection of hepatitis B virus DNA by real-time nucleic acid sequence-based amplification with molecular beacon detection.
We have developed a hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA detection and quantification system based on amplification with nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (NASBA) technology and real-time detection with molecular beacon technology. NASBA is normally applied to amplify single-stranded target RNA, producing RNA amplicons. In this work we show that with modifications like primer design, sample extr...
متن کاملReal-time nucleic acid sequence-based amplification assay for detection of hepatitis A virus.
A nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (NASBA) assay in combination with a molecular beacon was developed for the real-time detection and quantification of hepatitis A virus (HAV). A 202-bp, highly conserved 5' noncoding region of HAV was targeted. The sensitivity of the real-time NASBA assay was tested with 10-fold dilutions of viral RNA, and a detection limit of 1 PFU was obtained. The s...
متن کاملDetection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae by real-time nucleic acid sequence-based amplification.
Real-time isothermal nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (RT-NASBA) was applied to the detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae. In vitro-generated M. pneumoniae RNA was used to assess the sensitivity of the assay. The 95% hit rate was 148 molecules of M. pneumoniae RNA in the amplification and 10(4) molecules of in vitro-generated RNA after nucleic acid extraction. The sensitivity of the RT-NA...
متن کاملMicrofluidic devices for nucleic acid (NA) isolation, isothermal NA amplification, and real-time detection.
Molecular (nucleic acid)-based diagnostics tests have many advantages over immunoassays, particularly with regard to sensitivity and specificity. Most on-site diagnostic tests, however, are immunoassay-based because conventional nucleic acid-based tests (NATs) require extensive sample processing, trained operators, and specialized equipment. To make NATs more convenient, especially for point-of...
