Isothermal amplification is a low-cost and rapid method for detecting low amounts of DNA. This technique eliminates the need for a thermal cycler and is increasingly used in rugged field or point of care settings for the rapid diagnosis of plant pathogens or infectious disease agents.
Meridians Air-Dryable and Lyo-Ready LAMP Mastermixes are ready-to-use and 4x concentrated. The Air-Dryable™ technology can be used in a liquid format or oven-dried to create an ambient-temperature stable assay. The same can be achieved with Lyo-Ready master mixes which are optimized for freeze-drying due to their formulation with lyo-excipients, making them ideal for POC blood testing. They can also be used wet.
