AI Article Synopsis

  • Infection by Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) leads to significant economic losses in silkworm farming, necessitating a quick and efficient detection method.
  • The study developed a recombinase-aided amplification (RAA) technique that can amplify BmNPV DNA in just 30 minutes at 37°C, which is then coupled with a lateral flow dipstick (LFD) for rapid results.
  • The RAA-LFD method offers high sensitivity, specifically detects BmNPV without interfering with other pathogens, and is more cost-effective and suitable for on-site detection compared to traditional PCR methods.

Article Abstract

The infection of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is one of the main causes of economic losses in sericulture. Thus, it is essential to establish rapid and effective method for BmNPV detection. In the present study, we have developed a recombinase-aided amplification (RAA) to amplify the BmNPV genomic DNA at 37 °C within 30 min, and achieved a rapid detection method by coupling with a lateral flow dipstick (LFD). The RAA-LFD method had a satisfactory detection limit of 6 copies/μL of recombinant plasmid pMD19-T-IE1, and BmNPV infection of silkworm can be detected 12 h post-infection. This method was highly specific for BmNPV, and without cross-reactivity to other silkworm pathogens. In contrast to conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the RAA-LFD assay showed higher sensitivity, cost-saving, and especially is apt to on-site detection of BmNPV infection in the sericulture production.

Feline calicivirus (FCV) is one of the most common viral pathogens in domestic cats worldwide, which mainly causes upper respiratory tract infections in felines and seriously threatens the health of felines. Consequently, it is crucial to establish a rapid detection method to efficiently take control and prevent the spread of FCV. To construct the Cas13a-RAA-LFD reaction system, this study specifically designed recombinase-aided amplification (RAA) primers added with a T7 promoter and CRISPR RNA (crRNA), which were both based on the FCV relatively conserved sequence.

Background: Porcine teschovirus (PTV) is an important enteropathogen, associated with symptoms of polioencephalomyelitis, pneumonia, pericarditis, myocarditis, diarrhea, and reproductive disorders in pigs. Rapid and precise diagnostic methods are essential for managing PTV infections. The study introduced a simple, quick, and visual approach for detecting PTV through the use of RT-RAA coupled with LFD.

Background: Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) is a significant cause of bovine respiratory disease, resulting in significant losses to the cattle industry. For rapid detection of BRSV, a real-time recombinase-aided isothermal amplification assay (qRT-RAA) based on the gene of BRSV was developed in this study.

Results: The developed qRT-RAA assay showed good exponential amplification of the target fragment in 20 min at a constant temperature of 39 °C.
