Digital Microfluidics for Nucleic Acid Amplification
Digital Microfluidics (DMF) has emerged as a disruptive methodology for the control and manipulation of low volume droplets. In DMF, each droplet acts as a single reactor, which allows for extensive multiparallelization of biological and chemical reactions at a much smaller scale. DMF devices open entirely new and promising pathways for multiplex analysis and reaction occurring in a miniaturize...
متن کاملPoint-of-care nucleic acid testing for infectious diseases.
Nucleic acid testing for infectious diseases at the point of care is beginning to enter clinical practice in developed and developing countries; especially for applications requiring fast turnaround times, and in settings where a centralized laboratory approach faces limitations. Current systems for clinical diagnostic applications are mainly PCR-based, can only be used in hospitals, and are st...
متن کاملNucleic Acid Amplification Testing: The New Infectious Disease Testing Method for Donor Blood.
Beginning in the spring of 1999, the American Red Cross and 16 member laboratories of the America’s Blood Centers began testing donor blood for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type-1 and the hepatitis C virus with a new research testing method known as nucleic acid amplification testing (NAT). This testing is conducted under well-defined Investigational New Drug research protocols approv...

متن کاملSensitivity and Specificity of Nucleic Acid Sequence-Based Amplification Method for Diagnosis of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis
Abstract Background and Objective: Culture, microscopic method is a gold standard method for identification of Lishmania parasite. The use of Molecular methods such as RT- PCR compared to microscopic methods has a higher sensitivity and specificity however, it is not widely used due to its expensive equipment and the time requested. The use of nucleic acid sequence based amplification (NASBA) ...
