Abstract
Current tools for detecting transgenic crops, such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR), require professional equipment and complex operation. Herein, we introduce a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas system to analyze transgenes by designing an isothermal amplification to serve as the amplified reporter, allowing an isothermal and label-free detection of transgenic crops. The use of Cas12a allowed direct and specific recognition of transgenes. To enhance the sensitivity of the assay, we used rolling circle amplification (RCA) to monitor the recognition of transgenes by designing the RCA primer as the cleavage substrate of Cas12a. The presence of transgenes can be detected by monitoring the G-quadruplex in RCA amplicon using a G-quadruplex binding dye, N-methyl mesoporphyrin IX (NMM). We termed the assay as isoCRISPR and showed that the assay allowed distinguishing transgenic corn cultivars ("Bt11" and "MON89034") from nontransgenic corn cultivars ("yellow", "shenyu", "xianyu", and "jingke"). The isoCRISPR assay will enrich the toolbox for transgenic crop identification and broaden the application of CRISPR/Cas in food authenticity and safety.

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the three most pathogenic bacteria that frequently cause life-threatening opportunistic human infections, pneumonia, and lower respiratory tract infections in immunocompromised hosts, particularly in the burns ward. The present study aimed to establish a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) method for the rapid and sensitive detection of P. aeruginosa-specific gene hypothetical protein (GenBank ID: 882161). The gene was obtained through local and online BLAST, and specific primers were designed for this gene. Reaction conditions were optimized at 65°C for 30 min and 80°C for 2 min, whereas the reaction system contained 5.2 mM Mg2+, 8 U Bst 2.0 DNA polymerase, 1.4 mM deoxyribonucleotide and 0.2 and 1.6 µM of the outer and inner primers, respectively. The LAMP method was evaluated using 150 P. aeruginosa and 170 non-P. aeruginosa strains. Positive reactions were observed on 150 P. aeruginosa strains, whereas all non-P. aeruginosa strains exhibited negative results. Plasmids with the specific gene and mouse blood with P. aeruginosa were used for sensitivity assay. The detection limit of LAMP was 1 bacterium/reaction. Results indicated that the LAMP method targeted to hypothetical protein is a fast, specific, sensitive, inexpensive and suitable method for detection of P. aeruginosa.

Abstract
Genotyping of hepatitis B virus (HBV) can be used for clinical effective therapeutic drug-selection. A novel microfluidic biochip for HBV genotyping has been fabricated, for the first time, integrating loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), line probes assay (LiPA) and giant magnetoresistive (GMR) sensors. Coupling LAMP with LiPA in microfluidic chip shortened reaction time substantially, and combining LAMP with GMR sensor enabled limit of detection to attain 10 copies mL(-1) target HBV DNA molecules in 1 h. Furthermore, the independent designed GMR sensors and microfluidic chip can decrease manufacturing cost and patient's test-cost, and facilitate GMR detector repeating use for signal detection. In addition, the detection system has a lower background signal owing to application of superparamagnetic nanoclusters. And it can be expected to use for multiple target molecules synchronous detection in microfluidic chip based on a characteristic of stationary reaction temperature of LAMP. In conclusion, the neoteric detecting system is well suitable for quick genotyping diagnosis of clinical HBV and other homothetic biomolecule detection in biological and medical fields.
