Point-of-Care Detection of <i>Burkholderia pseudomallei</i>: A Method Integrating LAMP and LFSA with RNase HII Hydrolysis

Melioidosis, caused by <i>Burkholderia pseudomallei</i>, is a tropical disease known for its long incubation period and high mortality rate. However, the traits of this “great imitator” present significant challenges for clinical diagnosis and pose a serious threat to populations in epidemic regions. A rapid, accurate, and low environment requirement diagnostic method is needed to enable timely diagnoses. Here, we developed a strategy for point-of-care testing (POCT) using loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) with RNase HII for efficient detection of <i>B. pseudomallei</i>, through real-time fluorescence analysis or lateral flow strip assay (LFSA). Briefly, RNase HII-based cleavage dual-functional probe LAMP (RCDP-LAMP) utilizes.
