Loop-mediated Isothermal Amplification Reaction Using a Nondenatured Template [PDF]
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a novel nucleic acid amplification method that amplifies DNA with high specificity, efficiency, and rapidity under isothermal conditions (1). The LAMP method requires a set of four specially designed primers and a DNA polymerase with strand displacement activity.
