The global SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has driven a surge in demand for rapid and efficient viral infection diagnostic tests, leading to a shortage in diagnostic test consumables. A new method using carbon nanotubes and ssDNA sequences has been developed to achieve high-yield extraction of viral nucleic acids, with a 100% extraction yield of target SARS-CoV-2 RNA. This method allows direct extraction of nucleic acids from human saliva, bypassing the need for further biofluid purification and commercial extraction kits.
The global SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus pandemic has led to a surging demand for rapid and efficient viral infection diagnostic tests, generating a supply shortage in diagnostic test consumables including nucleic acid extraction kits. Here, we develop a modular method for high-yield extraction of viral single-stranded nucleic acids by using capture ssDNA sequences attached to carbon nanotubes. Target SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA can be captured by ssDNA-nanotube constructs via hybridization and separated from the liquid phase in a single-tube system with minimal chemical reagents, for downstream quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) detection. This nanotube-based extraction method enables 100% extraction yield of target SARS-CoV-2 RNA from phosphate-buffered saline in comparison to similar to 20% extraction yield when using a commercial silica-column kit. Notably, carbon nanotubes enable extraction of nucleic acids directly from 50% human saliva with a similar efficiency as achieved with commercial DNA/RNA extraction kits, thereby bypassing the need for further biofluid purification and avoiding the use of commercial extraction kits. Carbon nanotube-based extraction of viral nucleic acids facilitates high-yield and high-sensitivity identification of viral nucleic acids such as the SARS-CoV-2 viral genome with a reduced reliance on reagents affected by supply chain obstacles.
