Every year more and more scientists are finding out that RPA really works. Over 350 peer-reviewed publications* have been written as people discover the benefits of RPA. See the publications on this page to give you inspirational ideas of how you could use RPA for experiments that just aren't possible with PCR.

  • A microfluidic enrichment platform with a recombinase polymerase amplification sensor for pathogen diagnosis

    Author: Nguyen DTT, Lee EY, Koo B, Jin CE, Lee TY, Shin Y.

    Using this enrichment platform, the detection limit was found to be 20 times more sensitive in 10 ml urine with Salmonella and 10 times more sensitive in 10 ml urine with Brucella than that of real-time PCR without the enrichment process.

  • A DNA Barcode-Based RPA Assay (BAR-RPA) for Rapid Identification of the Dry Root of Ficus hirta (Wuzhimaotao)

    Author: Tian E, Liu Q, Ye H, Li F, Chao Z.

    This technique showed a high specificity and sensitivity to amplify the genomic DNA of F. hirta and allowed for rapid amplification (within 15 min) of the ITS region under a constant and mild temperature range of 37–42 °C without using […]

  • Development of a pan-rickettsial molecular diagnostic test based on recombinase polymerase amplification assay

    Author: Kissenkötter J, Hansen S, Böhlken-Fascher S, Ademowo OG, Oyinloye OE, Bakarey AS, Dobler G, Tappe D, Patel P, Czerny CP, Abd El Wahed A.

    All results were compared with real-time PCR assays directed against the same rickettsial genes. The RPA assays are easy to handle and produced quicker results in comparison to real-time PCR.

  • Rapid detection of infectious bovine Rhinotracheitis virus using recombinase polymerase amplification assays

    Author: Hou P, Wang H, Zhao G, He C, He H.

    The assay performance on acute-phase high fever clinical samples collected from cattle with no vaccine against IBRV, which were suspected to be infected with IBRV, was validated by detecting 24 fecal, 36 blood, 38 nasal swab and 8 tissue specimens, […]

  • Determination of porcine ingredient in pork with recombinase polymerase mediated isothermal amplification.

    Author: Guo YH, Chen S, Wang DL, Nie YY, Wu H, Yang J, Zeng GQ, Chen JL, Guo XD.

    This method is rapid and efficient, and has good specificity and sensitivity, which is suitable for the rapid identification of porcine ingredient in meat from the market.

  • Label-free, real-time and multiplex detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis based on silicon photonic microring sensors and asymmetric isothermal amplification technique (SPMS-AIA)

    Author: Liu Q, Lim BKL Lim, SY, Tang WY, Gu Z, Chung J, Park MK, Barkham T.

    •A fast and label-free Mycobacterium tuberculosis diagnostic platform is developed. •The detection relies on asymmetric isothermal amplification and microring sensors. •The platform could detect a single cell of Mycobacterium tuberculosisH37Rv. •Both single and multiplex detection of TB biomarkers in clinical […]

  • Rapid detection of “Candidatus Phytoplasma mali” by recombinase polymerase amplification assays

    Author: Valasevich N, Schneider B.

    This is the first report of RPA-based assays for the detection of “Ca. P. mali”. The assays are suitable for high-throughput screening of plant material and point-of-care diagnostic and can be potentially combined with a simplified DNA extraction procedure.

  • Rapid virus diagnostic system using bio-optical sensor and microfluidic sample processing

    Author: Jin CE, Lee TY, Koo B, Sung H, Kim SH, Shin Y.

    •A rapid virus diagnostic system for human adenovirus. •Combination system of a microfluidic sample processing and a bio-optical sensor. •Use of a non-chaotropic reagent with a disposable thin-film platform in a single microchannel for sample processing. •Validated the clinical sensitivity […]

  • Development of molecular confirmation tools for swift and easy rabies diagnostics

    Author: Schlottau K, Freuling CM, Muller T, Beer M, Hoffmann B.

    Here, novel assays, i.e. HighSpeed RT-qPCR and isothermal recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) were designed and tested. Furthermore, three magnetic bead-based rapid extraction methods for manual or automated extraction were validated and combined with the new downstream assays.

  • Development and evaluation of Loop-mediated isothermal amplification, and Recombinase Polymerase Amplification methodologies, for the detection of Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat food samples.

    Author: Garrido-Maestu A, Azinheiro S, Carvalho J, Fucinos P, Prado M.

    •LAMP and RPA methods were developed for the detection of L. monocytogenes. •Performance of the new methods was compared against two reference real-time PCR methods. •A very low limit of detection, with high confidence, was obtained for both methodologies. •Both […]
