Rapid detection of low number of pathogenic bacteria in food is difficult. This study tested the filter-based loop-mediated isothermal amplification-lateral flow immunoassay (LAMP-LFA) method for rapid detection of pathogens in real food. O157:H7 was inoculated on 25 g of beef and the homogenized sample was filtered with 0.45 μm cellulose nitrate filter, and concentrated was recovered and DNA was extracted and analyzed by LAMP. LFA reaction was performed by hybridization of digoxygenin-labeled LAMP amplicon and biotinylated probe. The sensitivity of the filtered sample was 100 times more sensitive than that of the unfiltered sample. The total reaction time used for detection from sample preparation to confirmation of was within 3 h. These results suggest that the LAMP-LFA method can be used in real food systems as point-of-care testing for O157:H7 in beef.

Seasonal and persistent outbreaks of influenza viruses represent a significant challenge to global public health. Rapid, convenient and accurate diagnosis methods of influenza viruses are crucial for timely treatment to mitigate morbidity and mortality during both seasonal epidemics and pandemics. However, current diagnostic tools often face limitations in speed, accuracy or complexity of result interpretation; there is a great need for more efficient detection technology for influenza virus, especially for use in resource-limited settings or during large-scale outbreaks.

The ongoing increase in genomic surveillance of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) lineages remains a significant global challenge, mainly due to the incompatibility of genetic sequencing with the technological and economic capabilities of most countries worldwide. Additionally, the continued circulation and emergence of numerous lineages of the Omicron variant with some specific mutations represent a challenge in developing straightforward tests for their discrimination. In this study, we developed a multiplex assay based on reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification with lateral flow assay detection (RT-LAMP-LFA).

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a rapid and efficient method for DNA amplification, producing concatemers of varying lengths (amplicons). This study explores the characterization of LAMP amplicons using asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) and their realization in LAMP - lateral flow assay (LFA) for point-of-care diagnostics. We examined LAMP products from the invA gene of Salmonella enterica using two specific primer sets and three methods: fluorescent staining with SYBR Green, electrophoretic detection, and AF4.

Introduction: In response to the rapid spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, we developed a rapid molecular approach to diagnose COVID-19 without the need for RNA extraction.
Methods: The study utilized two molecular methods, RT-qPCR and colorimetric RT-LAMP, to diagnose the RdRp and ORF8 genes, respectively, in oro-nasopharyngeal swabs. Due to the high sequence diversity of ORF8 in SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2, it has been identified as a suitable target for virus detection.
