Development of a rapid and visual detection method for Rickettsia rickettsii combining recombinase polymerase assay with lateral flow test
26 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Rickettsia rickettsii is the causative agent of Rocky Mountain spotted fever, which is the most severe spotted fever group (SFG) rickettsiosis. Developing a simple and reliable detection method is required. METHODS: A detection method for R. rickettsii was established based on a recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) assay and the lateral flow (LF) test. A specific target sequence was screened,...
