Development of a single-tube one-step RT-LAMP assay to detect the Chikungunya virus genome.

Development of a single-tube one-step RT-LAMP assay to detect the Chikungunya virus genome.

A single-tube one-step real-time reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay for rapid detection of chikungunya virus (CHIKV) targeting the conserved 6K-E1 target region was developed. The assay was validated with sera collected from a CHIKV outbreak in Senegal in 20...
