Use of reverse transcriptase loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay for field detection of Newcastle disease virus using less invasive samples

A novel nucleic acid amplification method, loop-mediated isothermal amplification, was developed and recently demonstrated detection of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) in tissue samples. But slaughter of poultry for test samples is often faced with resentment by low-income farmers. This study was unde...
