Rapid Detection of COVID-19 by RT-LAMP PCR Technique and its Comparison with Real-Time RT-PCR Method

چکیده مقاله:
Rapid antigen and antibody, serological tests, and RT ‑ PCR-based molecular methods are widely used for the detection of microorganisms worldwide. Objectives: This study aimed by Isothermal nucleic acid amplification techniques to detect the covid-19. Methods: In this study, 200 samples of nasopharynx and oropharynx were collected from Jamaran Heart Hospital in Tehran. Covid -19 was examined by LAMP-RT PCR and Real-Time RT- PCR techniques. The nasopharynx and oropharynx nucleic acids were extracted both by pishtaz RNA extraction kit. LAMP-RT-PCR was studied with direct samples, but Real-Time RT-PCR samples were tested only by RNA extraction samples. The probe-primer mixture of this kit is designed by a dual-target gene method that simultaneously targets the genomic sequences of the spike region and N nucleocapsid. Fluorescence was measured by Real-Time RT-PCR and LAMP-RT PCR. Results: Many 200 samples of nasopharynx and oropharynx collected from Jamaran Heart Hospital were studied. Clinical specimens (56%) were positive by Real-Time RT-PCR technique with mean Ct values less than 30. In the RT-LAMP technique of RNA extraction samples, clinical samples (52%)were positive for Covid-19. RT-LAMP technique indicated a sensitivity of 92.8%. Also in the RT-LAMP method without RNA extraction, the sensitivity of the technique was 85.7%. Conclusion: The LAMP-RT PCR technique is emerging as an appropriate alternative to the Real-Time RT-PCR method. This technique has some basic advantages such as constant temperature amplification, thermal cycle elimination, faster results, and potentially greater detection capacity. Therefore, the RT-LAMP-PCR can be used as a quick and cheap technique that can be used in all areas.

Viral myocarditis is a moderate disease, but it sometimes causes progressive cardiac disorder. Many different viruses have been considered as the agent of viral myocarditis, but Coxsackievirus of the B group, in particular of the Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3), is more than fifty percent of cases of viral myocarditis. CVB3 is a positive single-stranded RNA virus and a member of the genus Enterovirus ...

INTRODUCTION Dengue fever and dengue haemorrhagic fever currently rank highly among the newly-emerging infectious diseases, and are considered to be the most important arboviral disease worldwide. The definitive diagnosis is culture analysis, but practical considerations limit its use. Also, the period for viral detection is limited. Within a day or two after fever subsides, rising levels of an...

A variety of factors that influence real-time reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR results were examined. Realtime reaction volumes can be decreased from the manufacturers suggested volumes (50μl) to as little as 5μl. Errors introduced through volume handlings can be significantly mitigated through the use of electronic pipettes. Random hexamers are compared against the use of a specific reverse tran...

The causative agents of rabies are single-stranded, negative-sense RNA viruses in the genus Lyssavirus of Rhabdoviridae, consisting of twelve classified and three as yet unclassified species including classical rabies virus (RABV). Highly neurotropic RABV causes rapidly progressive encephalomyelitis with nearly invariable fatal outcome. Rapid and reliable diagnosis of rabies is highly relevant ...
