Rapid diagnosis of Zika virus through saliva and urine by Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP)

Rapid diagnosis of Zika virus through saliva and urine by Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP)

Background: Zika virus (ZIKV) is a single-stranded RNA virus and member of the Flaviviridae family. Recent studies have reported that saliva can be an important alternative to detect ZIKV. Saliva requires less processing than blood greatly simplifying the assay. Loop-mediated Isothermal Amplificatio...
