Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), as the rank one alternative to a polymerase
chain reaction (PCR), has been widely applied in point-of-care testing (POCT) due to its …

With the recent SARS-CoV-2 outbreak, the importance of rapid and direct detection of
respiratory disease viruses has been well recognized. The detection of these viruses with …

Loop‐mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assays are used to detect diverse
pathogens. Initially, LAMP amplicons were detected using electrophoresis; later, real‐time …

Rhinoviruses (RVs) are classified into three species: RV-A, B, and C. Unlike RV-A and-B, RV-
C cannot be propagated using standard cell culture systems. In order to isolate RV-Cs from …

Genetic diagnostic assays for the detection of respiratory viruses sometimes show
simultaneous multiple infections with low copy numbers. In such cases, the disease is …

Background The novel cap‐dependent endonuclease inhibitor baloxavir marboxil was
approved in February 2018 for the treatment of influenza virus infection in Japan. In vitro …

Rubella virus infection during early pregnancy sometimes causes severe birth defects
termed congenital rubella syndrome. Although there are safe and effective live-attenuated …

A method that has rapidly evolved for detection of viral pathogens are loop-mediated
isothermal amplification (LAMP) assays. The available LAMP assays usually target the most …

Influenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, and human metapneumovirus commonly cause
acute upper and lower respiratory tract infections, especially in children and the elderly …

Abstract Rhinoviruses (RVs), particularly RV-C, frequently cause acute respiratory infections
and asthma exacerbations. However, there is a lack of routine detection methods. Thus, this …
