Rapid genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is crucial for prognostics and disease management, enabling more rapid therapy selection and treatment determination. Here, we introduce a point-of-care platform for hair loss-related SNP genotyping based on allele-specific loop-mediated isothermal amplification (AS-LAMP) combined with naked-eye visualization. The specificity of the AS-LAMP assay was significantly enhanced by using mismatched allele-specific primers. AS-LAMP reaction and Schiff's reagent-based colorimetric detection were successfully performed using a thermoplastic genotyping chip. This strategy also showed potential for determining homozygotes and heterozygotes in a target sample. To assess SNP genotyping capacity, the genotyping chip was fabricated to visually detect rs6152 polymorphism of an androgen receptor gene associated with genetically induced hair loss. The genotyping platform rapidly identified the SNP within 40 min, and the detection limit was as low as 1 pg/μL of the target DNA contained in human serum. The introduced strategy showed high specificity and stability in discriminating low-abundance mutations, making it suitable as a portable and affordable point-of-care platform for rapid and accurate SNP discrimination applicable for bedside detection.

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-based point-of-care testing (POCT) has the potential to facilitate the rapid identification of diseases, offering advantages such as high sensitivity, strong selectivity, and minimal background interference. However, as the throughput of these devices increases, the issues of increased energy consumption and cross-contamination of samples remain. In this study, a high-throughput ECL biosensor platform with the assistance of machine learning algorithms is developed by combining a microcolumn array electrode, a microelectrochemical workstation, and a smartphone with custom software.

This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of amplicon-based real-time metagenomic sequencing applied to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for identifying the causative agents of bacterial meningitis. We conducted a 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing using a nanopore-based platform, alongside routine polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing or bacterial culture, to compare its clinical performance in pathogen detection on CSF samples. Among 17 patients, nanopore-based sequencing, multiplex PCR, and bacterial culture detected potential bacterial pathogens in 47.

Pathogen nucleic acid detection technology based on isothermal amplification and CRISPR/Cas12a system offers advantages in terms of high sensitivity, high specificity, and rapidity. However, this method has not been widely applied because of its shortcomings in utilizing conventional instruments, which cannot satisfy the requirements for Point of Care Testing (POCT), such as integration, convenience, and miniaturization. In this study, we developed an integrated lift-heater centrifugal microfluidic platform (Lift-CM) to automate the processes of isothermal amplification and CRISPR/Cas12a detection.

Background: Traditional in-clinic methods of collecting self-reported information are costly, time-consuming, subjective, and often limited in the quality and quantity of observation. However, smartphone-based ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) provide complementary information to in-clinic visits by collecting real-time, frequent, and longitudinal data that are ecologically valid. While these methods are promising, they are often prone to various technical obstacles.
