Abstract
Phytophthora parasitica is a highly destructive oomycete plant pathogen that is capable of infecting a wide range of hosts including many agricultural cash crops, fruit trees, and ornamental garden plants. One of the most important diseases caused by P. parasitica worldwide is black shank of tobacco. Rapid, sensitive, and specific pathogen detection is crucial for early rapid diagnosis, which can facilitate effective disease management. In this study, we used a genomics approach to identify repeated sequences in the genome of P. parasitica by genome sequence alignment and identified a 203-bp P. parasitica-specific sequence, PpM34, that is present in 31 to 60 copies in the genome. The P. parasitica genome specificity of PpM34 was supported by PCR amplification of 24 genetically diverse strains of P. parasitica, 32 strains representing 12 other Phytophthora species, one Pythium species, six fungal species, and three bacterial species, all of which are plant pathogens. Our PCR and real-time PCR assays showed that the PpM34 sequence was highly sensitive in specifically detecting P. parasitica. Finally, we developed a PpM34-based high-efficiency recombinase polymerase amplification assay, which allowed us to specifically detect as little as 1 pg of P. parasitica total DNA from both pure cultures and infected Nicotiana benthamiana at 39°C using a fluorometric thermal cycler. The sensitivity, specificity, convenience, and rapidity of this assay represent a major improvement for early diagnosis of P. parasitica infection.

Abstract
Rapid and robust detection assays for Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) in shell eggs are essential to enable a quick testing turnaround time (TAT) at the earliest checkpoint and to ensure effective food safety control. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays provide a workaround for the protracted lead times associated with conventional Salmonella diagnostic testing. However, DNA-based analysis cannot reliably discriminate between signals from viable and dead bacteria. We developed a strategy based on an SE qPCR assay that can be integrated into system testing to accelerate the detection of viable SE in egg-enriched cultures and verify the yielded SE isolates. The specificity of the assay was evaluated against 89 Salmonella strains, and SE was accurately identified in every instance. To define the indicator for a viable bacteria readout, viable or heat-inactivated SE were spiked into shell egg contents to generate post-enriched, artificially contaminated cultures to establish the quantification cycle (Cq) for viable SE. Our study has demonstrated that this technique could potentially be applied to accurately identify viable SE during the screening stage of naturally contaminated shell eggs following enrichment to provide an early alert, and that it consistently identified the serotypes of SE isolates in a shorter time than conventional testing.

Rapid detection of multiple resistance genes to last-resort antibiotics in Enterobacteriaceae pathogens by recombinase polymerase amplification combined with lateral flow dipstick.

Abstract
The worrying emergence of multiple resistance genes to last-resort antibiotics in food animals and human populations throughout the food chain and relevant environments has been increasingly reported worldwide. Enterobacteriaceae pathogens are considered the most common reservoirs of such antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Thus, a rapid, efficient and accurate detection method to simultaneously screen and monitor such ARGs in Enterobacteriaceae pathogens has become an urgent need. Our study developed a recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) assay combined with a lateral flow dipstick (LFD) for simultaneously detecting predominant resistance genes to last-resort antibiotics of Enterobacteriaceae pathogens, including mcr-1, blaNDM-1 and tet(X4). It is allowed to complete the entire process, including crude DNA extraction, amplification as well as reading, within 40 min at 37°C, and the detection limit is 101 copies/μl for mcr-1, blaNDM-1 and tet(X4). Sensitivity analysis showed obvious association of color signals with the template concentrations of mcr-1, blaNDM-1 and tet(X4) genes in Enterobacteriaceae pathogens using a test strip reader (R 2 = 0.9881, R 2 = 0.9745, and R 2 = 0.9807, respectively), allowing for quantitative detection using multiplex RPA-LFD assays. Therefore, the RPA-LFD assay can suitably help to detect multiple resistance genes to last-resort antibiotics in foodborne pathogens and has potential applications in the field.

Abstract
Foodborne and enteric viruses continue to impose a significant public health and economic burden globally. As many of these viruses are highly transmissible, the ability to detect them portably, sensitively, and rapidly is critical to reduce their spread. Although still considered a gold standard for detection of these viruses, real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based technologies have limitations such as limited portability, need for extensive sample processing/extraction, and long time to result. In particular, the limitations related to the susceptibility of real time PCR methods to potential inhibitory substances present in food and environmental samples is a continuing challenge, as the need for extensive nucleic acid purification prior to their use compromises the portability and rapidity of such methods. Isothermal amplification methods have been the subject of much investigation for these viruses, as these techniques have been found to be comparable to or better than established PCR-based methods in portability, sensitivity, specificity, rapidity, and simplicity of sample processing. The purpose of this review is to survey and compare reports of these isothermal amplification methods developed for foodborne and enteric viruses, with a special focus on the performance of these methods in the presence of complex matrices.

Abstract
Nucleic acid amplification-based techniques have gained acceptance by the scientific, and general, community as reference methodologies for many different applications. Since the development of the gold standard of these techniques, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), back in the 1980s many improvements have been made, and alternative techniques emerged reporting improvements over PCR. Among these, isothermal amplification approaches resulted of particular interest as could overcome the need of specialized equipment to accurately control temperature changes, but it was after year 2000 that these techniques have flourished in a huge number of novel alternatives with many different degrees of complexities and requirements. An added value is their possibility to be combined with many different naked-eye detection strategies, simplifying the resources needed, allowing to reduce cost, and serving as the basis for novel developments of lab-on-chip systems, and miniaturized devices, for point-of-care testing. In this review, we will go over different types of naked-eye detection strategies, combined with isothermal amplification. This will provide the readers up-to-date information for them to select the most appropriate strategies depending on the particular needs and resources for their experimental setup.

Abstract
The isothermal amplification method, a molecular-based diagnostic technology, such as loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA), is widely used as an alternative to the time-consuming and labor-intensive culture-based detection method. However, food matrices or other compounds can inhibit molecular-based diagnostic technologies, causing reduced detection efficiencies, and false-negative results. These inhibitors originating from food are polysaccharides and polyphenolic compounds in berries, seafood, and vegetables. Additionally, magnesium ions needed for amplification reactions can also inhibit molecular-based diagnostics. The successful removal of inhibitors originating from food and molecular amplification reaction is therefore proposed to enhance the efficiency of molecular-based diagnostics and allow accurate detection of food-borne pathogens. Among molecular-based diagnostics, PCR inhibitors have been reported. Nevertheless, reports on the mechanism and removal of isothermal amplification method inhibitors are insufficient. Therefore, this review describes inhibitors originating from food and some compounds inhibiting the detection of food-borne pathogens during isothermal amplification.

Abstract
Erythromycin has polluted our aquatic environment for decades, leading to the risk of bacterial resistance and harmful effects on human beings, wildlife and ecosystem. There is an urgent demand of developing a portable tool capable of detecting erythromycin on site. In this study, ten aptamer candidates against erythromycin were prepared through Capture-SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment) process in 20 rounds. Aptamer candidate Ery_06 with the highest enrichment was chosen for further study, whose affinity was characterized by gold nanoparticles colorimetric assay, quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation and agarose chasing diffusion assay. It was determined by SYBR Green I fluorimetric assay that the characterized aptamer binds to erythromycin with high affinity (Kd: 20 ± 9 nM). Its specificity was also characterized by distinguishing erythromycin from different antibiotics tested. A novel lateral flow aptasensor was constructed by using the newly identified aptamer combined with recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) and lateral flow strip (LFS). Aptamer acted as a sensing element anchoring on the surface of solid phase could be eluted by erythromycin. RPA functioned to amplify and convert the signal to be visible on LFS. The lateral flow was completed in 15 min, achieving a detection limit of 3 pM. The application feasibility of the aptasensor was proved by the detection of tap water samples spiked with erythromycin.

Abstract
The bacterium Escherichia coli is commonly associated with the presence of faecal contamination in environmental samples, and is therefore subject to statutory surveillance. This is normally done using a culture-based methodology, which can be slow and laborious. Nucleic acid amplification for the detection of E. coli DNA sequences is a significantly more rapid approach, suited for applications in the field such as a point of sample analysis, and to provide an early warning of contamination. An existing, high integrity qPCR method to detect the E. coli ybbW gene, which requires almost an hour to detect low quantities of the target, was compared with a novel, isothermal RPA method, targeting the same sequence but achieving the result within a few minutes. The RPA technique demonstrated equivalent inclusivity and selectivity, and was able to detect DNA extracted from 100% of 99 E. coli strains, and exclude 100% of 30 non-target bacterial species. The limit of detection of the RPA assay was at least 100 target sequence copies. The high speed and simple, isothermal amplification chemistry may indicate that RPA is a more suitable methodology for on-site E. coli monitoring than an existing qPCR technique.

Abstract
The current clinical protocol to conduct a bacterial antibiotic susceptibility test (AST) requires at least 18 hours, and cannot be accomplished during a single visit for patients. Here, a new method based on the technique of CRISPR-Cas12a is utilized to accomplish a bacterial genotypic AST within one hour with good accuracy. Two amplification approaches are employed and compared: (1) enriching the bacterial concentration by culturing in growth media; and (2) amplifying target DNA from raw samples by recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA). The results show that CRISPR combined with RPA can rapidly and accurately provide a bacterial genotypic AST of urine samples with urinary tract infections for precise antibiotic treatment. As such, this technology could open a new class of rapid bacterial genotypic AST for various infectious diseases.

Abstract
Dairy products have been implicated in foodborne infections caused by different bacterial pathogens. Among them, Listeria monocytogenes is of particular concern due to its ubiquity, resistance to sanitation processes and high mortality rates resulting from infection. These issues make the development of novel methods for the rapid detection of this bacterium of high interest. The evaluation of a novel multiplex real-time Recombinase Polymerase Amplification method including an internal amplification control is reported in the present work. The method performance was compared to that of the European reference method (ISO 11290-1) for the detection of the species in samples from 40 commercial products, including 14 UHT milk samples, 16 hard cheese samples, 6 infant dairy preparation samples and 4 fresh cheese samples. A limit of detection below 10 cfu/25 g or mL sample was achieved, and values higher than 90% were obtained for relative sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive and negative predictive values and the index (kappa) of concordance. Analysis was achieved within one working day, compared to the six days required using the ISO method. Moreover, slight modification of the ISO 11290-1 method to include secondary enrichment in half Fraser broth resulted in the confirmation of all positive samples.

Abstract
Salmonella can cause serious foodborne diseases. We have developed a lateral flow immunoassay combined with recombinase polymerase amplification (LFD-RPA) for detection of Salmonella in food. The conserved fragment (fimY) was selected as the target gene. Under an optimal condition (37 °C, 10 min), the sensitivity was 12 colony-forming units (CFU)/mL in a pure culture. Testing with 16 non-Salmonella strains as controls revealed that LFD-RPA was specific to the fimY gene of Salmonella. The established assay could detect Salmonella at concentrations as low as 1.29 × 102 CFU/mL in artificially contaminated samples. This detection was at a slightly higher level than that for a pure bacterial culture. Combined with the test strip reader, the LFD-RPA is a feasible method for quantitative detection of Salmonella based on the test line intensity, which was the ratio for the test line and control line of the reflected light. The method could be a potential point-of-care test in limited resource areas and provides a new approach and technical support for the diagnosis of food safety.

[PMID: 31196420 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2019.05.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2019] [Revised: 04/29/2019] [Accepted: 05/13/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Salmonella is a widely distributed, extremely harmful bacteria, the presence of which requires confirmation via an on-site visual biosensor. In this study, we constructed a label-free, cascade amplification visualization biosensor for the sensitive and rapid detection of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar typhimurium based on the RDTG principle (recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA), duplex-specific enzyme (DSN) cleavage, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) extension and G-quadruplexes output). Following DNA extraction of Salmonella spp., the first step in the construction involved the recognition and amplification of nucleic acids, carried out by RPA, to achieve the first signal amplification within 10 min. This RPA product was then specifically cleaved by DSN to produce a large number of small double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) products with 3'-OH within 15 min to achieve the second signal amplification. Thereafter, TdT was employed to empower these small 3'-OH dsDNA products to extend and produce a large number of long G-rich single-stranded DNAs (ssDNAs) within 20 min, thus realizing the third signal increase. These long G-rich ssDNA products displayed a color change that could be directly observed through the naked eye by adding H2O2/3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The RDTG biosensor for the detection of Salmonella spp. has several advantages, including a low limit of 6 cfu/mL. It is an isothermal-free instrument, simple to operate, with a rapid detection time of less than 1.5 h. Furthermore, it can be visually characterized and quantified by a microplate reader to detect Salmonella spp., in food and environmental samples, and it has broad application prospects.

Abstract
Changes in the population levels of specific bacterial species within the gut microbiome have been linked to a variety of illnesses. Most assays that determine the relative abundance of specific taxa are based on amplification and sequencing of stable phylogenetic gene regions. Such lab-based analysis requires pre-analytical sample preservation and storage that have been shown to introduce biases in the characterization of microbial profiles. Recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) is an isothermal nucleic acid amplification method that employs commercially available, easy-to-use freeze-dried enzyme pellets that can be used to analyze specimens rapidly in the field or clinic, using a portable fluorometer. Immediate analysis of diverse bacterial communities can lead to a more accurate quantification of relative bacterial abundance. In this study, we discovered that universal bacterial 16S ribosomal DNA primers give false-positive signals in RPA analysis because manufacturing host Escherichia coli DNA is present in the RPA reagents. The manufacturer of RPA reagents advises against developing an RPA assay that detects the presence of E. coli due to the presence of contaminating E. coli DNA in the reaction buffer (www.twistdx.co.uk/). We, therefore, explored four strategies to deplete or fragment extraneous DNA in RPA reagents while preserving enzyme activity: metal-chelate affinity chromatography, sonication, DNA cleavage using methylation-dependent restriction endonucleases, and DNA depletion using anti-DNA antibodies. Removing DNA with anti-DNA antibodies enabled the development of a quantitative RPA microbiome assay capable of determining the relative abundance of the physiologically-important bacterium Akkermansia muciniphila in human feces.

Abstract
Multiplexed isothermal amplification and detection of nucleic acid sequences and biomarkers is of increasing importance in diverse areas including advanced diagnostics, food quality control and environmental monitoring. Whilst there are several very elegant isothermal amplification approaches, multiplexed amplification remains a challenge, requiring careful experimental design and optimisation, from judicious primer design in order to avoid the formation of primer dimers and non-specific amplification, applied temperature as well as the ratio and concentration of primers. In this review, we describe the various approaches that have been reported to date for multiplexed isothermal amplification, for both "one-pot" multiplexing as well as parallelised multiplexing using loop-mediated isothermal amplification, strand-displacement amplification, helicase-dependent amplification, rolling circle amplification, nucleic acid sequence-based amplification, with a particular focus on recombinase polymerase amplification.

Abstract
Recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) is a highly sensitive and selective isothermal amplification technique, operating at 37-42°C, with minimal sample preparation and capable of amplifying as low as 1-10 DNA target copies in less than 20 min. It has been used to amplify diverse targets, including RNA, miRNA, ssDNA and dsDNA from a wide variety of organisms and samples. An ever increasing number of publications detailing the use of RPA are appearing and amplification has been carried out in solution phase, solid phase as well as in a bridge amplification format. Furthermore, RPA has been successfully integrated with different detection strategies, from end-point lateral flow strips to real-time fluorescent detection amongst others. This review focuses on the different methodologies and advances related to RPA technology, as well as highlighting some of the advantages and drawbacks of the technique.

Abstract
Phytophthora root rot of soybean, caused by Phytophthora sojae, is one of the most important diseases in the Midwestern United States, and is estimated to cause losses of up to 1.2 million metric tons per year. Disease may also be caused by P. sansomeana; however, the prevalence and damage caused by this species is not well known, partly due to limitations of current diagnostic tools. Efficient, accurate, and sensitive detection of pathogens is crucial for management. Thus, multiplex qPCR and isothermal RPA (recombinase polymerase amplification) assays were developed using a hierarchical approach to detect these Phytophthora spp. The assays consist of a genus-specific probe and two species-specific probes that target the atp9-nad9 region of the mitochondrial genome that is highly specific for the genus Phytophthora. The qPCR approach multiplexes the three probes and a plant internal control. The RPA assays run each probe independently with a plant internal control multiplexed in one amplification, obtaining a result in as little as 20 mins. The multicopy mitochondrial genome provides sensitivity with sufficient variability to discern among different Phytophthora spp. The assays were highly specific when tested against a panel of 100 Phytophthora taxa and range of Pythium spp. The consistent detection level of the assay was 100 fg for the qPCR assay and 10 pg for the RPA assay. The assays were validated on symptomatic plants collected from Michigan (U.S.) and Ontario (Canada) during the 2013 field season, showing correlation with isolation. In 2014, the assays were validated with samples from nine soybean producing states in the U.S. The assays are valuable diagnostic tools for detection of Phytophthora spp. affecting soybean.

Abstract
Electrochemical detection of solid-phase isothermal recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) of Piscirickettsia salmonis in salmon genomic DNA is reported. The electrochemical biosensor was constructed by surface functionalization of gold electrodes with a thiolated forward primer specific to the genomic region of interest. Solid-phase RPA and primer elongation were achieved in the presence of the specific target sequence and biotinylated reverse primers. The formation of the subsequent surface-tethered duplex amplicons was electrochemically monitored via addition of streptavidin-linked HRP upon completion of solid-phase RPA. Successful quantitative amplification and detection were achieved in less than 1 h at 37 °C, calibrating with PCR-amplified genomic DNA standards and achieving a limit of detection of 5 · 10-8 μg ml-1 (3 · 103 copies in 10 μl). The presented system was applied to the analysis of eight real salmon samples, and the method was also compared to qPCR analysis, observing an excellent degree of correlation.
