Abstract
Infectious diseases have always been a seriously endanger for human life and health. A rapid, accurate and ultra-sensitive virus nucleic acid detection is still a challenge to deal with infectious diseases. Here, a RNA extraction-free reduced graphene oxide-based reverse transcription-loop-mediated isothermal amplification (EF-G-RT-LAMP) fluorescence assay was developed to achieve high-throughput, rapid and ultra-sensitive SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection. The whole detection process only took ∼36 min. The EF-G-RT-LAMP assay achieves a detection limit of 0.6 copies μL−1 with a wide dynamic range of aM-pM. A large number (up to 384) of samples can be detected simultaneously. Simulated detection of the COVID-19 pseudovirus and clinical samples in nasopharyngeal swabs demonstrated a high-throughput, rapid and ultra-sensitive practical detection capability of the EF-G-RT-LAMP assay. The results proved that the assay would be used as a rapid, easy-to-implement approach for epidemiologic diagnosis and could be extended to other nucleic acid detections.
