A fully integrated duplex RT-LAMP device for the detection of viral infections
Respiratory viruses can cause epidemics or pandemics, which are worldwide outbreaks of disease. The severity of these events varies depending on the virus, its characteristics, along with environmental factors. The frequency of epidemics and pandemics caused by respiratory viruses is difficult to predict, but the potential severity of such events underlines the importance of continued monitoring, research, and preparation for emerging infectious diseases. To help improve pandemic preparedness, we created a fully integrated duplex reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) device targeting two respiratory viruses, influenza A/X-31 virus and bovine coronavirus, as a replacement for SARS-CoV-2. This device can be adapted to any other respiratory virus. In this study, we showed and evaluated a prototype of a microfluidic system, and …
