Nanozyme-strip for rapid and ultrasensitive nucleic acid detection of SARS-CoV-2

Xiangqin Meng et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a high demand for rapid and sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2. In this study, we developed a method combining RPA and FeS2 nanozyme strips for nucleic acid amplification and colorimetric signal enhancement. The FeS2 nanozymes exhibited high peroxidase-like activity, enabling colorimetric signal amplification using a non-toxic substrate. The method showed a limit of detection for SARS-CoV-2 close to that of RT-PCR, and demonstrated high agreement with previous RT-PCR results for clinical samples. Our findings suggest that nanozyme-based nucleic acid detection has great potential in the development of POCT diagnosis for COVID-19 and other viral infections.

Rapid and sensitive recombinase polymerase amplification combined with lateral flow strips for detecting Candida albicans

Fang Wang et al.

Summary: Due to modern lifestyles and increasing medical intervention, clinical infections caused by conditionally pathogenic fungi, especially Candida albicans, are becoming more serious. Recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) combined with lateral flow strips (LFS) is a promising method for rapid and accurate detection of this pathogenic fungus. However, the simplicity of the method brings the risk of false-positive signals from primer-dimers. This study successfully eliminated primer-dependent artifacts in the RPA reaction by using probes, introducing specific base substitutions, and analyzing primer-probe complexes, leading to an improved RPA-LFS system for specific detection of C. albicans within 25 minutes without interference.
