Abstract The aim of this study was to use a rapid and easy DNA-based test, the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), for diagnosis of Babesia canis canis infections in dogs. 10 DNA samples of 18S RNA-A and 10 DNA samples of 18S RNA-B of B. canis canis were used in the study. LAMP method could successfully detect DNA in all examined samples down to 0.1 pg dilution. Obtained results suggest that this method has high specificity and sensitivity and can be applied in analytical laboratories in diagnosis of canine babesiosis.

Campylobacter Spp

Background: Different species of Campylobacter are the most common causes of bacterial gastroenteritis. There are many methods to detect the presence of Campylobacter, including PCR, but it takes about 5-6 hours. Using loop-mediated amplification assay allowed reducing the time of detection and simplifying the procedure at all. Aims: To develop a loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay (LAMP) with fluorescent probe for the diagnosis of campylobacteriosis. Methods: Stool suspensions were prepared and bacterial fractions were separated as in methodological recommendation of Central Research Institute of Epidemiology described. DNA was extracted using AmpliTest RIBO-prep (FSBI SPC FMBA, Russian Federation) according to the manufacturers instruction and detected with AmpliSens OKI-screen-FL" (FBIS CRIE, Russian Federation). Primers and probes were selected in 16S rDNA gene region. Analytical specificity was confirmed on bacterial cultures, analytical sensitivity was assessed using a recombinant plasmid containing the target Campylobacter DNA sequence fragment. LAMP amplification was performed at 65 C for 30 min. Results: An assay for the detection of Campylobacter spp. based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification is developed, the reaction time does not exceed 30 minutes. The analytical sensitivity of the developed technique is comparable to the real-time PCR and is equal to 103 copies / ml, the analytical specificity is 100%. The evaluation of 127 clinical samples, previously characterized by the commercial kit "AmpliSens OKI-screen-FL" (FBIS CRIE, Russian Federation), showed high diagnostic specificity and sensitivity of the developed LAMP-method. No false positive results were found, 108 samples were negative by LAMP and PCR. Campylobacter spp. DNA was detected by the LAMP method in 18 out of 19 PCR-positive samples. One discordant LAMP negative sample can be attributed to the low bacterial load of Campylobacter spp. for a given sample. Conclusions: A method for the rapid detection of Campylobacter spp. loop-mediated isothermal amplification is developed, and its high analytical and diagnostic characteristics have been shown experimentally. Keywords: Gastrointestinal infections, molecular diagnostics, rapid diagnostics, Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP), Campylobacter spp.

Minced Meat

Raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides) is an economically important animal used for fur production, but consuming its meat is injurious to human health. Currently, no rapid and sensitive method for detecting raccoon dog meat in meat mixtures is available. In this study, we developed an easily applicable, rapid, and economically feasible method for identifying the presence of raccoon dog in meat mixtures based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). Four sets of LAMP primers were tested at different temperatures, and the primers that worked best at 62°C (set 2) were determined. In the LAMP assay, there was no cross-reactivity with the meat procured from other species of animals and the detection limit of DNA concentration was 0.1 pg·μL−1, slightly higher than TaqMan real-time PCR (0.01 pg·μL−1), but sensitivity of 0.1 pg·μL−1 complies with most requirements of routine analysis. Moreover, by the LAMP method, the meat mixtures containing more than 0.5% of the raccoon dog component were directly detected (without DNA extraction) in the supernatant isolated from the meat mixtures after performing repeated cycles of thawing and freezing of minced meat mixtures. Our results show that LAMP assay is a valuable, straightforward, and sensitive detection tool for identification of raccoon dog meat in mixtures.

Betacoronavirus 1 (BCoV-1) is an important pathogen causing diarrhea in calves. In the current study, a novel reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay for rapid detection of BCoV-1 was successfully developed. The primers were designed to target the highly conserved fragment of BCoV-1 nucleocapsid gene. The assay displayed high specificity detecting only BCoV-1 with no cross reaction with other viruses. When 418 clinical samples from 6 different geographical areas of Xinjiang province were tested by the RT-LAMP method, the results indicated that this test is a simple, rapid, accurate, and sensitive method for the detection of BCoV-1.
