Abstract:

The COVID-19 pandemic has spread worldwide, and rapid detection of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is crucial for infection surveillance and epidemic control. This study developed a centrifugal microfluidics-based multiplex reverse transcription recombinase polymerase amplification (RT-RPA) assay for endpoint fluorescence detection of the E, N, and ORF1ab genes of SARS-CoV-2. The microscope slide-shaped microfluidic chip could simultaneously accomplish three target genes and one reference human gene (i.e., ACTB) RT-RPA reactions in 30 min, and the sensitivity was 40 RNA copies/reaction for the E gene, 20 RNA copies/reaction for the N gene, and 10 RNA copies/reaction for the ORF1ab gene. The chip demonstrated high specificity, reproducibility, and repeatability. Chip performance was also evaluated using real clinical samples. Thus, this rapid, accurate, on-site, and multiplexed nucleic acid test microfluidic chip would significantly contribute to detecting patients with COVID-19 in low-resource settings and point-of-care testing (POCT) and, in the future, could be used to detect emerging new variants of SARS-CoV-2.
