Novel Target for Pathogenic Leptospira Detection via Colorimetric Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP): Development, Validation, and Comparative Analysis. [PDF]
A novel colorimetric LAMP assay targeting the org‐hp gene was developed for rapid Leptospira detection. The assay is performed in a simple water bath at 65°C for 90 min, and results can be interpreted by a color change visible to the naked eye. This method provides a sensitive, specific, and field‐adaptable diagnostic tool for use in resource‐limited ...
