An HFman Probe-Based Multiplex Reverse Transcription Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Assay for Simultaneous Detection of Hantaan and Seoul Viruses.

ABSTRACT: Hantaviruses are zoonotic pathogens that are widely distributed worldwide. Hantaan virus (HTNV) and Seoul virus (SEOV) are two most common hantaviruses that infect humans and cause hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS). Rapid and sensitive detection of HTNV and SEOV are crucial for surveillance, clinical treatment and management of HFRS. This study aimed to develop a rapid HFman probe-based mulstiplex reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay to simultaneously detect HTNV and SEOV. A novel multiplex RT-LAMP assay was developed, and 46 serum samples obtained from clinically suspected patients were used for evaluation. The novel RT-LAMP assay can detect as low as 3 copies/reaction of hantaviruses with a detection limit of 41 and 73 copies per reactio
