Sensitivity and Specificity of Nucleic Acid Sequence-Based Amplification Method for Diagnosis of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis
Abstract Background and Objective: Culture, microscopic method is a gold standard method for identification of Lishmania parasite. The use of Molecular methods such as RT- PCR compared to microscopic methods has a higher sensitivity and specificity however, it is not widely used due to its expensive equipment and the time requested. The use of nucleic acid sequence based amplification (NASBA) ...
متن کاملDiagnostic Devices for Isothermal Nucleic Acid Amplification
Since the development of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, genomic information has been retrievable from lesser amounts of DNA than previously possible. PCR-based amplifications require high-precision instruments to perform temperature cycling reactions; further, they are cumbersome for routine clinical use. However, the use of isothermal approaches can eliminate many complications...
متن کاملDigital Microfluidics for Nucleic Acid Amplification
Digital Microfluidics (DMF) has emerged as a disruptive methodology for the control and manipulation of low volume droplets. In DMF, each droplet acts as a single reactor, which allows for extensive multiparallelization of biological and chemical reactions at a much smaller scale. DMF devices open entirely new and promising pathways for multiplex analysis and reaction occurring in a miniaturize...
متن کاملDigital Nucleic Acid Amplification on a Slipchip
This presentation will describe a recently developed SlipChip based microfluidic platform to perform digital nucleic acid amplification in a simple and low-cost format. Samples can be introduced into the SlipChip by pipetting without the use of complex instruments, and thousands of nanoliter volume compartments can be generated by simple slipping. A “yes-or-no” digital readout of end-point fluo...
متن کاملIsoPCR: an analytically sensitive, nested, multiplex nucleic acid amplification method.
BACKGROUND Nucleic acid tests that can simultaneously detect multiple targets with high sensitivity, specificity, and speed are highly desirable. To meet this need, we developed a new approach we call the isoPCR method. METHODS The isoPCR method is a 2-stage nested-like nucleic acid amplification method that combines a single multiplex preamplification PCR with subsequent distinct detection o...
