Rapid Identification of Chikungunya and Dengue Virus by a Real-Time Reverse Transcription-Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Method
21 Sept 2012
Abstract excerpt
Both Chikungunya and Dengue virus belong to the acute arthropod-borne viruses. Because of the lack of specific symptoms, it is difficult to distinguish the two infections based on clinical manifestations. To identify and quantitatively detect Chikungunya and Dengue viruses, a real-time accelerated reverse-transcription-loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) platform was developed, and 26-confirmed RNA...
