Rapid Detection of Zika Virus in Urine Samples and Infected Mosquitos by Reverse Transcription-Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification
Abstract Infection with Zika virus (ZIKV) is of growing concern since infection is associated with the development of congenital neurological disease.Quantitative reverse transcription Cookbook PCR (qRT-PCR) has been the standard for ZIKV detection; however, Reverse Transcription Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (RT-LAMP) may allow for faster
