Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) Assay for Detecting <i>Burkholderia cepacia</i> Complex in Non-Sterile Pharmaceutical Products

Simple and rapid detection of <i>Burkholderia cepacia</i> complex (BCC) bacteria, a common cause of pharmaceutical product recalls, is essential for consumer safety. In this study, we developed and evaluated a <i>ribB</i>-based colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplificat...

description Simple and rapid detection of <i>Burkholderia cepacia</i> complex (BCC) bacteria, a common cause of pharmaceutical product recalls, is essential for consumer safety. In this study, we developed and evaluated a <i>ribB</i>-based colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for the detection of BCC in (i) nuclease-free water after 361 days, (ii) 10 μg/mL chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) solutions, and (iii) 50 μg/mL benzalkonium chloride (BZK) solutions after 184 days. The RibB 5 primer specifically detected 20 strains of BCC but not 36 non-BCC strains. The limit of detection of the LAMP assay was 1 pg/μL for <i>Burkholderia cenocepacia</i> strain J2315. Comparison of LAMP with a qPCR assay using 1440 test sets showed higher sensitivity: 60.6% in nuclease-free water and 42.4% in CHX solution with LAMP vs. 51.3% and 31.1%, respectively, with qPCR. These results demonstrate the potential of the <i>ribB</i>-based LAMP assay for the rapid and sensitive detection of BCC in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
