Significance Detection of submicroscopic malaria in asymptomatic individuals is needed for eradication and remains a diagnostic gap resource-limited settings. Nonfalciparum clinical diagnostics are second gap, as these infections have low parasite density commonly undetected. We describe an integrated, 60-min, ultrasensitive specific CRISPR-based the four major pathogenic Plasmodium species that can fill gaps. Using SHERLOCK (specific high-sensitivity enzymatic reporter unlocking) platform, we designed assays with limits detection below recommended by World Health Organization. These simplified sample preparation method: rapid extraction protocol, which eliminates complicated nucleic acid steps. Our work further translates platform into field-deployable diagnostic.

COVID-19 has spread globally since its discovery in Hubei province, China December 2019. A combination of computed tomography imaging, whole genome sequencing, and electron microscopy were initially used to screen identify SARS-CoV-2, the viral etiology COVID-19. The aim this review article is inform audience diagnostic surveillance technologies for SARS-CoV-2 their performance characteristics. We describe point-of-care diagnostics that are on horizon encourage academics advance beyond conception. Developing plug-and-play manage outbreak would be useful preventing future epidemics.

Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are paper-based point-of-care (POC) diagnostic tools that widely used because of their low cost, ease use, and rapid format. Unfortunately, traditional commercial LFAs have significantly poorer sensitivities (μM) specificities than standard laboratory tests (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, ELISA: pM-fM; polymerase chain reaction, PCR: aM), thus limiting impact in disease control. In this Perspective, we review the evolving efforts to increase sensitivity specificity LFAs. Recent work improve through assay improvement includes optimization kinetics signal amplification by either reader systems or additional reagents. Together, these produced with ELISA-level (pM-fM). addition, sample preamplification can be applied both nucleic acids (direct amplification) other analytes (indirect prior LFA testing, which lead PCR-level (aM) sensitivity. However, strategies also detection time complexity, inhibits large-scale POC use Perspectives achieve future (<30 min), ultrasensitive (PCR-level), "sample-to-answer" diagnostics provided. case specificity, recent research focused on high-affinity molecules reduce nonspecific binding.

For infectious diseases, rapid and accurate identification of the pathogen is critical for effective management treatment, but diagnosis remains challenging, particularly in resource-limited areas. Methods that accurately detect nucleic acids can provide robust, accurate, rapid, ultrasensitive technologies point-of-care pathogens, thus yield information invaluable disease treatment. Several technologies, mostly PCR-based, have been employed detection; however, these require expensive reagents equipment, skilled personnel. CRISPR/Cas systems used genome editing, based on their ability to recognize cleave specific DNA RNA sequences. Moreover, following recognition target sequence, certain including orthologues Cas13, Cas12a, Cas14 exhibit collateral nonspecific catalytic activities be acid detection, example by degradation a labeled produce fluorescent signal. are amenable multiplexing, thereby enabling single diagnostic test identify multiple targets down attomolar (10–18 mol/L) concentrations molecules. Developing devices couple with lateral flow may allow inexpensive, highly sensitive, in-field deployable diagnostics. These sensors myriad applications, from human health agriculture. In this review, we discuss recent advances field CRISPR-based biosensing highlight insights potential use applications.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic was partially due to challenge identifying asymptomatic and presymptomatic carriers virus, thus highlights a strong motivation for diagnostics with high sensitivity that can be rapidly deployed. On other hand, several concerning SARS-CoV-2 variants, including Omicron, are required identified as soon samples 'positive'. Unfortunately, traditional PCR test does not allow their specific identification. Herein, first time, we have developed MOPCS (Methodologies Photonic CRISPR Sensing), which combines an optical sensing technology-surface plasmon resonance (SPR) 'gene scissors' clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) technique achieve both specificity when it comes measurement viral variants. is low-cost, CRISPR/Cas12a-system-empowered SPR gene-detecting platform analyze RNA, without need amplification, within 38 min from sample input results output, limit detection 15 fM. achieves highly sensitive analysis SARS-CoV-2, mutations appear in variants B.1.617.2 (Delta), B.1.1.529 (Omicron) BA.1 (a subtype Omicron).
