Abstract

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas enzymes have been widely applied for biosensor development, combined with various isothermal amplification strategies (IAS) to boost sensitivity and specificity. Currently, the unstable assay and tedious manipulation usually hinder its practical applications. Here, a Cas14a1-advanced LAMP assay (CALA) combined with Rapid Extraction of Bacterial Genomic DNA (REBGD) is proposed for pathogen detection. For rapid CALA, a single stranded fluorescence reporter and ssDNA-gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are used as signal indicators to establish ultrasensitive and visual platforms. This assay displays precise detection of bacteria, which can achieve an ultrasensitive limit of detection (LOD) 10 aM target genomic DNA. Furthermore, the high reliability of pathogen diagnostic for contrived samples is validated through the rapid visual CALA platform, demonstrating the promising practical testing availability of pathogen detection.
