摘要
Nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT) remains one of the most reliable methods for pathogen identification. However, conventional bulk NAATs may not be sufficiently fast or sensitive enough for the detection of clinically-relevant pathogens in point-of-care testing. Here, we have developed a digital droplet RT-LAMP (ddRT-LAMP) assay that rapidly and quantitatively detects the SARS-CoV-2 viral E gene in microfluidic drops. Droplet partitioning using ddRT-LAMP significantly accelerates detection times across a wide range of template concentrations compared to bulk RT-LAMP assays. We discover that a reduction in droplet diameter decreases assay times up to a certain size, upon which surface adsorption of the RT-LAMP polymerase reduces reaction efficiency. Optimization of drop size and polymerase concentration enables rapid, sensitive, and quantitative detection of the SARS-CoV-2 E gene in only 8 min. These results highlight the potential of ddRT-LAMP assays as an excellent platform for quantitative point-of-care testing. We have developed a digital droplet RT-LAMP (ddRT-LAMP) assay that rapidly and quantitatively detects the SARS-CoV-2 viral E gene in microfluidic drops. Droplet partitioning using ddRT-LAMP significantly accelerates detection times across a wide range of template concentrations compared to bulk RT-LAMP assays. image
