LAMP assays were performed on the 319 blood samples using a protocol reported previously [25] (link). The primers used are listed in Table 1. Briefly, reaction mixtures were prepared with Loopamp DNA amplification kits (Eiken Chemical Co., Ltd.; Japan) as follows: 2.4 µM of both FIP and BIP primers, 0.2 µM of both F3 and B3c primers, 0.8 µM of LPF and LPB, 12.5 µL of 2× reaction mixture (40 mM Tris-HCl [pH 8.8], 20 mM KCl, 16 mM MgSO4, 20 mM (NH4)2SO4, 0.2% Tween 20, 1.6 M betaine, and 2.8 mM of each deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate), Bst DNA polymerase, and 5 µL of DNA sample. LAMP was performed at 60°C in a water bath for 60 min, and visibly turbid samples were considered positive, in a single blind manner. LAMP reaction mixes were stained with SYBR green I dye (Eugene, USA), and positive samples were identified with the naked eye under an ultraviolet transilluminator or using a handheld black light.

We prepared LCV14 (link) solution containing 0.5 mM crystal violet (CV), 30 mM sodium sulfite, and 5 mM β-cyclodextrin and stored at −20°C until use. 5.5 μL of prepared LCV dye, 0.5 μL AMV Reverse Transcriptase (10 U/μL), and 2~4 μL sample were added to a 25-μL LAMP reaction volume. For field use, we dried LCV14 (link). A 10-μL volume of the mixture was dispensed into a 200-μL microtube and dried at 60°C for 60 min in a vacuum oven to remove the solvent. When running RT-LAMP with dried LCV, a 10-μL LAMP reaction buffer was added to rehydrate the dried LCV dye. The RT-LAMP reaction was performed with either the Loopamp DNA amplification kit (Eiken Chemical Co., Ltd., Japan) or OptiGene kit (ISO-001, OptiGene, USA). For concurrent fluorescence monitoring and LCV colorimetric detection, the OptiGene kit is preferred. The reaction mixes were incubated with our benchtop thermal cycler (BioRad, Model CFD3240), miniPCR 8 (miniPCR Bio), and our custom-made block heater at 63°C for up to 40 min. The LCV color change was observed at the end of the incubation process by naked eye, and, if desired, can be recorded with a smartphone.

Genus-specific as well as species-specific (P. falciparum or P. vivax) LAMP assays (Han et al., 2007 (link)) were performed to detect Plasmodium parasite infection in blood samples from the cross-sectional surveys. To perform these LAMP assays, 150 μl of distilled water was added to 50 μl of blood and boiled for 5 min. The sample was then centrifuged for 3 min at 13,000 g. A total volume of 5.5 μl of the supernatant containing genomic DNA was used as the template in a 25 μl LAMP reaction, using the Loopamp DNA amplification kit (Eiken Chemical Co, Japan) and an appropriate primer set as previously described (Han et al., 2007 (link); Sattabongkot et al., 2014 (link)). Only samples that were free of P. falciparum were included in the final data analysis. The limits of the LAMP assays for P. falciparum and P. vivax were 100 copies/reaction (Han et al., 2007 (link)).

Colorimetric LAMP Assay with LCV

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
LCV solution containing 0.5 mM crystal violet (CV), 30 mM sodium sulfite, and 5 mM β-cyclodextrin was prepared and stored at −20 °C until use. For field use, LCV can be lyophilized for long shelf life at room-temperature (13 (link)). The first-stage RPA mix was carried out as described above. The second-stage LAMP reaction was performed with a Loopamp DNA amplification kit (Eiken Chemical Co., Ltd., Japan) that, in contrast to the Optigene kit, does not include fluorescent dye. To ease hand-mixing, we used 70 μL LAMP volume. The LAMP reaction mix included: 1.6 μM FIP and BIP, 0.8 μM LF and LB; 1 μL Bst DNA polymerase (provided in Loopamp DNA amplification kit, http://loopamp.eiken.co.jp/e/products/dna/); and 5.5 μL LCV solution. The reaction buffer was incubated at 63°C for up to 40 min. The LCV color change was observed at the end of the incubation process by naked eye and, if desired, it can be recorded with a smartphone.

The isothermal DNA amplification reaction was performed using the loopamp DNA amplification kit, following the protocol from the manufacturer (Eiken Chemical Co., Tokyo, Japan). Each LAMP reaction included the following reagents: 2 µL of genomic DNA, 12.5 µL of reaction mixture, 1 µL of primer mixture (F3, B3, FIP, and BIP), 1 µL of Bst DNA polymerase, and 8.5 µL of molecular grade water.

The resultant LAMP products were analyzed by 1.7% gel electrophoresis, visualized with a UV transilluminator, and the images were recorded with a digital gel documentation system (Bio-Rad).

Automated DNA Detection with Graphite Heating

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In addition to implementing cell lysis using micro-carbon-activated heating for fully automated DNA detection on the LOD, DNA amplification was a main objective of the present study. The Loopamp DNA Amplification Kit (Eiken Chemical Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) and a graphite sheet (graphite depth: 0.1 mm, GENetech, Seoul, Korea) were used because the LAMP process was performed at 60 °C. Figure 7 shows the location of the graphite sheet on the disc. To illustrate its function, a side-view schematic of the graphite is also presented.
Graphite is a substance with a high heat of fusion, melting, and solidification at a certain temperature; thus, it can store and release large amounts of energy. When graphite is transformed into sheet form (hereinafter referred to as a “G-sheet”) with a thickness of a few micrometers, its state becomes very sensitive to temperature changes. For a G-sheet, the phase change occurs at a temperature of 60 °C. In this study, the IR camera measured the temperature distribution as a 2D image map.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
