A phaseguided passive batch microfluidic mixing chamber for isothermal amplification

With a view to developing a rapid pathogen detection system utilizing isothermal nucleic acid amplification, the necessary micro-mixing step is innovatively implemented on a chip. Passive laminar flow mixing of two 6.5 μl batches differing in viscosity is performed within a microfluidic chamber.

Rapid Molecular Assays for the Detection of Yellow Fever Virus in Low-Resource Settings

RPA assays were developed to detect Yellow Fever Virus on three different platforms (real-time with or without microfluidic semi-automated system and lateral-flow assay). The assay was able to detect 20 different YFV strains with no cross-reactions with closely related viruses. The RPA assay proved to be a robust, portable method with a low detection limit (

Rapid detection of Schmallenberg Virus & Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus using isothermal amplification

Among a wide range of available technologies, high-speed real-time reverse transcriptase quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and the two isothermal amplification techniques loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) represent three promising candidates for integration into mobile pen-side tests.
