Development of a lateral flow recombinase polymerase amplification assay for rapid and visual detection of Cryptococcus neoformans/C. gattii in cerebral spinal fluid.

For definitive diagnosis of cryptococcal meningitis, Cryptococcus neoformans and/or C. gattii must be identified within cerebral spinal fluid from the patients. In this study, an assay combining recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) with lateral flow (LF) was developed to detect C.neoformans and C. gattii in cerebral spinal fluid.

Rapid molecular detection of macrolide resistance

Emerging antimicrobial resistance is a significant threat to human health. In this study, recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) is used to detect the antimicrobial resistance gene mef(A) from raw lysates without nucleic acid purification

Development of a recombinase polymerase amplification combined with a lateral flow dipstick assay for rapid detection of the Mycoplasma bovis.

Mycoplasma bovis (M. bovis) is a major etiological agent of bovine mycoplasmosis around the world. Point-of-care testing in the field is lacking owing to the requirement for a simple, robust field applicable test that does not require professional laboratory equipment. The recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) technique has become a promising isothermal DNA amplify assay for use in rapid and low-resource …

Development of a recombinase polymerase based isothermal amplification combined with lateral flow assay (HLB-RPA-LFA) for rapid detection of “Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus”.

Currently, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real time PCR have been the gold standard techniques used for detection of ‘Ca. L. asiaticus’. These diagnostic methods are expensive, require well equipped laboratories, not user-friendly and not suitable for on-site detection of the pathogen. In this study, a sensitive, reliable, quick and low cost recombinase polymerase based isothermal amplification combined with lateral …

Real-time recombinase polymerase amplification assay for the rapid and sensitive detection of Campylobacter jejuni in food samples.

In this study, a real-time RPA assay was developed so as to achieve the rapid and efficient detection of C. jejuni by targeting the hipO gene. The specificity and sensitivity of real-time RPA was validated and the practical applicability of the method for the detection of C. jejuni in artificially contaminated milk and chicken breast samples was proved by comparing …
