چکیده

The one-step single-tube betaine-free reverse transcription (RT)-loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay was developed for rapid diagnosis of hepatitis E virus. This assay amplified the target gene in less than 45 min (even as short as 20 min) under isothermal conditions at 63 degrees C, and the sensitivity of this assay was 100-fold greater than that of RT-PCR. This assay demonstrated a detection limit of 0.045 fg (nine copies/reaction).

A reverse transcriptase-loop mediated isothermal amplification assay (RT-LAMP) for rapid detection of bovine viral diarrhea virus 1 and 2

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is a pathogen that infects cattle, and is globally important. It causes substantial financial losses to the livestock industry. In the current study, a one-step reverse transcriptase-loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay was set up for rapid and efficient detection of BVDV. For this purpose, four primers were designed to recognize six distinct...

Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) for the Rapid Diagnosis of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 (HSV-1)

Background and Aims: considering difficulties in usual laboratory methods in detection of viral infections, improved DNA-based diagnostic techniques are more reliable. Loop mediated isothermal amplification method (LAMP) is a nucleic acid amplification method that amplifies DNA using six primers which has been developed to diagnose viruses as a rapid and high efficiency test. In this study, the...

Rapid detection of infectious bursal disease by loop-mediated isothermal amplification for field analysis

Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is an immunosuppressive, acute and highly contagious illness of growing-poultry stock infected with infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV). It is common in Pakistan, causing potential economic losses throughout the year. The objective of the study is to propose a rapid, sensitive and specific diagnostic tool, and compare it with existing commonly used reverse tra...

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP): a new approach for the detection of foot-and-mouth disease virus and its sero-types in Pakistan

Successful disease management requires a rapid and sensitive diagnosis method that can recognize early infection even before the manifestation of its clinical signs. The only available field diagnostic tests for foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) are lateral flow devices, commonly known as chromatographic strips. Low sensitivity and inability to detect FMD virus (FMDV) at the serotype level are limit...

Rapid detection of Lassa virus by reverse transcription-loop-mediated isothermal amplification.

In this study, a simple one-step reverse transcription-loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay for rapid detection of Lassa virus (LASV) was established. The two primer sets were designed to detect LASV circulating in Sierra Leone and northeastern Nigeria. The RT-LAMP assay using these primer sets was able to detect 100 copies of the in vitro transcribed artificial LASV RNA withi...
