Near-field detection and peak frequency metric for substrate and activation mapping of ventricular tachycardias in two- and three-dimensional circuits.

AIMS: Successful ventricular arrhythmia (VA) ablation requires identification of functionally critical sites during contact mapping. Estimation of the peak frequency (PF) component of the electrogram (EGM) may improve correct near-field (NF) annotation to identify circuit segments on the mapped surface. In turn, assessment of NF and far-field (FF) EGMs may delineate the three-dimensional path of a ventricular tachycardia (VT) circuit. METHODS AND RESULTS: A proprietary NF detection algorithm was applied retrospectively to scar-related re-entry VT maps and compared with manually reviewed maps employing first deflection (FDcorr) for VT activation maps and last deflection (LD) for substrate maps. Ventricular tachycardia isthmus location and characteristics mapped with FDcorr vs. NF were compared. Omnipolar low-voltage areas, late activating areas, and deceleration zones (DZ) in LD vs. NF substrate maps were compared. On substrate maps, PF estimation was compared between isthmus and bystander sites. Activation mapping with entrainment and/or VT termination with radiofrequency (RF) ablation confirmed critical sites. Eighteen patients with high-density VT activation and substrate maps (55.6% ischaemic) were included. Near-field detection correctly located critical parts of the circuit in 77.7% of the cases compared with manually reviewed VT maps as reference. In substrate maps, NF detection identified deceleration zones in 88.8% of cases, which overlapped with FDcorr VT isthmus in 72.2% compared with 83.3% overlap of DZ assessed by LD. Applied to substrate maps, PF as a stand-alone feature did not differentiate VT isthmus sites from low-voltage bystander sites. Omnipolar voltage was significantly higher at isthmus sites with longer EGM durations compared with low-voltage bystander sites. CONCLUSION: The NF algorithm may enable rapid high-density activation mapping of VT circuits in the NF of the mapped surface. Integrated assessment and combined analysis of NF and FF EGM-components could support characterization of three-dimensional VT circuits with intramural segments. For scar-related substrate mapping, PF as a stand-alone EGM feature did not enable the differentiation of functionally critical sites of the dominant VT from low-voltage bystander sites in this cohort.

A real-time colourimetric reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay for the rapid detection of highly pathogenic H5 clade 2.3.4.4b avian influenza viruses.

Highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV) are a major threat to the global poultry industry and public health due to their zoonotic potential. Since 2016, Europe and France have faced major epizootics caused by clade 2.3.4.4b H5 HPAIV. To reduce sample-to-result times, point-of-care testing is urgently needed to help prevent further outbreaks and the propagation of the virus. This study presents the design of a novel real-time colourimetric reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay for the detection of clade 2.3.4.4b H5 HPAIV. A clinical validation of this RT-LAMP assay was performed on 198 pools of clinical swabs sampled in 52 poultry flocks during the H5 HPAI 2020-2022 epizootics in France. This RT-LAMP assay allowed the specific detection of HPAIV H5Nx clade 2.3.4.4b within 30 min with a sensitivity of 86.11%. This rapid, easy-to-perform, inexpensive, molecular detection assay could be included in the HPAIV surveillance toolbox.

Cable Eccentricity Detection Method Based on Magnetic Field.

Amid the rapid advancement of electronic information technology, the need for cable eccentricity measurement in the industry is increasing both in China and across the globe. Current detection methods have several flaws, including high costs, insufficient accuracy, and instability. In this paper, we introduce a magnetic field-based detection method for cable eccentricity that provides high precision and cost-effectiveness. We position three pairs of magnetic field-collection modules in a circular array to gather magnetic flux density information induced by the electrified cable. We apply the law of electromagnetic induction to calculate the cable eccentricity. Our method is non-contact, preserving the cable's integrity. Our method outperforms traditional detection methods, not only in achieving greater accuracy and stability but also in significantly lowering the detection cost. Simulations and experiments show that our method's error rate under specified conditions is 0~4%, with a maximum standard deviation of 0.11, confirming its precision and stability in detecting cable eccentricity. The effectiveness of our method is influenced by two factors: lift-off value and loading current intensity. Our method presents a novel concept and a dependable strategy for the progress of cable eccentricity-detection technology.

Development of a reverse transcription recombinase polymerase amplification combined with lateral flow assay for equipment-free on-site field detection of tomato chlorotic spot virus.

BACKGROUND: Tomato chlorotic spot virus (TCSV) is an economically important, thrips-transmitted, emerging member of the Orthotospovirus genus that causes significant yield loss mainly in tomatoes, but also in other vegetable and ornamental crops. Disease management of this pathogen is often challenging due to the limited availability of natural host resistance genes, the broad host range of TCSV, and the wide distribution of its thrips vector. Point-of-care detection of TCSV with a rapid, equipment-free, portable, sensitive, and species-specific diagnostic technique can provide prompt response outside the laboratory, which is critical for preventing disease progression and further spread of the pathogen. Current diagnostic techniques require either laboratory-dependent or portable electronic equipment and are relatively time-consuming and costly. RESULTS: In this study, we developed a novel technique for reverse-transcription recombinase polymerase amplification combined with lateral flow assay (RT-RPA-LFA) to achieve a faster and equipment-free point-of-care detection of TCSV. The RPA reaction tubes containing crude RNA are incubated in the hand palm to obtain sufficient heat (∼36 °C) for the amplification without the need for equipment. Body-heat mediated RT-RPA-LFA is highly TCSV-specific with a detection limit as low as ∼6 pg/µl of total RNA from TCSV-infected tomato plants. The assay can be performed in 15 min in the field. CONCLUSION: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first equipment-free, body-heat-mediated RT-RPA-LFA technique developed to detect TCSV. Our new system offers a time-saving advantage for the sensitive and specific diagnostic of TCSV that local growers and small nurseries in low-resource settings can use without skilled personnel.

A rapid detection of tomato yellow leaf curl virus using recombinase polymerase amplification-lateral flow dipstick assay.

Tomato yellow leaf curl disease which is caused by Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) is economically important and a widely spread tomato disease in China. Rapid and accurate detection methods are important in the control TYLCV. Here, a rapid method was developed to identify TYLCV on the basis of recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) that can be visualized in 5 min using lateral flow dipsticks. The sensitivity and the specificity of this method were evaluated. This method can detect 0·5 pg DNA after 30 min at 37°C without any expensive instrumentation. In addition, it showed higher sensitivity than a PCR method when purified DNA was used. Moreover, the TYLCV was specifically detected, whereas other viruses infecting tomato produced negative results. The crude tomato extracts used in this assay has potential application in minimally equipped plant clinic laboratories. This method will facilitate the early and rapid detection of TYLCV for the timely application of control measures.

According to this property, the common self-heating warm pastes on the market were used replace the traditional heating instruments to stimulate the RPA.The results showed that the self-heating warm paste meets the temperature requirement of the RPA system. Finally, we combined the self-heating warm pastes with the RPA visual detection system to conduct on-site detection of GM 'Shuangkang'12-5, and compared the results with the detection results of qPCR. The detection showed that the results of on-site visual detection method established in this study were consistent with the detection results of the qPCR. Moreover, the visual detection method was more shorter in time and the final detection result was clear and easy to distinguish. The rapid on-site visual detection method for GM 'Shuangkang' 12-5 established in this study has high specificity, high sensitivity and convenience. It not only meets the needs of on-site rapid detection of GM 'Shuangkang'12-5, but also provides highlight for the development of other on-site rapid detection methods.

[Critical quality attribute assessment of big brand traditional Chinese medicine: study on NIR field detection method of chemical properties of moisture in Tongren Niuhuang Qingxin Pills].

For the field detection problems of critical quality attribute(CQA) of moisture content in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) manufacturing process, big brand TCM Tongren Niuhuang Qingxin Pills were used as the carrier, to establish a moisture content NIR field detection model with or without cellophane in real world production with use of near infrared(NIR) spectroscopy combined with stoichiometry. With the moisture content determined by drying method as reference value, the partial least square method(PLS) was used to analyze the correlation between the spectrum and the moisture reference value. Then the spectral pretreatment methods were screened and optimized to further improve the accuracy and stability of the model. The results showed that the best quantitative model was developed by the spectral data pretreatment of standard normal variate(SNV) with the latent variable factor number of 2 and 7 of Tongren Niuhuang Qingxin Pills with or without cellophane samples. The prediction coefficient of determination(R_(pre)~2) and standard deviation of prediction(RMSEP) of the model with cellophane samples were 0.765 7 and 0.157 2%; R_(pre)~2 and RMSEP of the model without cellophane samples were 0.772 2 and 0.207 8%. The NIR quantitative models of moisture content of Tongren Niuhuang Qingxin Pills with and without cellophane both showed good predictive performance to realize the rapid, accurate and non-destructive quantitative analysis of moisture content in such pills, and provide a method for the field quality control of the critical chemical attributes of moisture in the manufacturing of big brand TCM.

Field applicable detection of hepatitis B virus using internal controlled duplex recombinase-aided amplification assay and lateral flow dipstick assay.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a widespread blood-borne pathogen associated with the complication of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, particularly in south-east Asian and African countries where HBV is highly endemic and the budget and resources are limited. Therefore, simple, rapid, and portable field detection methods are crucial to efficiently control HBV infection. In this study, using heat-treated DNA, we developed two-field applicable detection assays for HBV based on recombinase-aided amplification (RAA). One was an internal controlled duplex RAA assay using a portable real-time fluorescence detection device, another was an instrument-free visual observation assay using lateral flow dipsticks. The entire experimental time was greatly shortened to less than 40 minutes at 39.0°C. The sensitivities, specificities, and clinical performance of both assays were evaluated. Compared with quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay as a reference, our results demonstrated that the two RAA-based assay obtained 97.18% and 95.77% of sensitivity, respectively, and the specificity was 100%, by testing a total of 157 serum samples with HBsAg positive. We conclude that the advantages of rapidity, simplicity, portability, and visualization of proposed two assays make them great potentials in point-of-care testing of HBV infection by untrained people in resource-limited situations.

Real-Time Quantitative and Ion-Metal Indicator LAMP-Based Assays for Rapid Detection of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is one of the most devastating and cosmopolitan plant pathogens. Rapid detection of S. sclerotiorum can provide growers an advantage in knowing what control measures should be taken to minimize crop damage and financial losses caused by it. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a fast, sensitive, and specific nucleic acid amplification method that does not require a thermal cycler. This study aimed to develop a LAMP-based assay for the specific detection of S. sclerotiorum (Ss-LAMP). A real-time quantitative LAMP reaction (Ss-qLAMP) and a calcein ion indicator-based LAMP reaction (Ss-cLAMP) were designed, optimized, and tested on fungi, plant, and soil samples. The Ss-LAMP reactions were very specific and sensitive. Applying the artificially inoculated soil samples with DNA purified by five protocols in the Ss-qLAMP reaction, it was possible to detect and quantify the pathogen DNA, regardless of the extraction protocol. Naturally infected soybean tissues had the pathogen detected by Ss-cLAMP directly in the reaction tube with no DNA extraction requirement. The assays should be applicable for many types of samples, such as soil, spore traps, and plant tissues from several crops, with no requirement for DNA extraction. The Ss-LAMP reactions took less than 1 h to complete, and they can be made directly in the field with real-time quantitative results (Ss-qLAMP) or qualitative naked-eye visual results (Ss-cLAMP). Results were obtained with 10 pg of DNA or 10 ng of crude mycelium, suggesting a detection limit close to a single DNA copy. Ss-LAMP reactions will allow rapid and accurate diagnosis of S. sclerotiorum and assist in pathogen management and control.

Novel Time-Resolved Fluorescence Immunochromatography Paper-Based Sensor with Signal Amplification Strategy for Detection of Deoxynivalenol.

Immunoassay has the advantages of high sensitivity, high specificity, and simple operation, and has been widely used in the detection of mycotoxins. For several years, time-resolved fluorescence immunochromatography (TRFIA) paper-based sensors have attracted much attention as a simple and low-cost field detection technology. However, a traditional TRFIA paper-based sensor is based on antibody labeling, which cannot easily meet the current detection requirements. A second antibody labeling method was used to amplify the fluorescence signal and improve the detection sensitivity. Polystyrene fluorescent microspheres were combined with sheep anti-mouse IgG to prepare fluorescent probes (Eu-IgGs). After the probe fully reacted with the antibody (Eu-IgGs-Abs) in the sample cell, it was deployed on the paper-based sensor using chromatography. Eu-IgGs-Abs that were not bound to the target were captured on the T-line, while those that were bound were captured on the C-line. The paper-based sensor reflected the corresponding fluorescence intensity change. Because a single molecule of the deoxynivalenol antibody could bind to multiple Eu-IgGs, this method could amplify the fluorescence signal intensity on the unit antibody and improve the detection sensitivity. The working standard curve of the sensor was established under the optimum working conditions. It showed the lower limit of detection and higher recovery rate when it was applied to actual samples and compared with other methods. This sensor has the advantages of high sensitivity, good accuracy, and good specificity, saving the amount of antibody consumed and being suitable for rapid field detection of deoxynivalenol.

High-Field Detection of Biomarkers with Fast Field-Cycling MRI: The Example of Zinc Sensing.

Many smart magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) probes provide response to a biomarker based on modulation of their rotational correlation time. The magnitude of such MRI signal changes is highly dependent on the magnetic field and the response decreases dramatically at high fields (>2 T). To overcome the loss of efficiency of responsive probes at high field, with fast-field cycling magnetic resonance imaging (FFC-MRI) we exploit field-dependent information rather than the absolute difference in the relaxation rate measured in the absence and in the presence of the biomarker at a given imaging field. We report here the application of fast field-cycling techniques combined with the use of a molecular probe for the detection of Zn2+ to achieve 166 % MRI signal enhancement at 3 T, whereas the same agent provides no detectable response using conventional MRI. This approach can be generalized to any biomarker provided the detection is based on variation of the rotational motion of the probe.

Application of ultra-rapid qPCR and DNA chips for viral RNA detection and confirmation.

The rapid and accurate detection of the presence of microorganisms, such as viruses, has been an important issue in the fields of public health, as well as agriculture. A PCR-based detection method has been developed and applied in these fields to determine the presence of specific pathogens. Although the major advantage of real-time PCR is the monitoring of amplification and ability to quantify the template genes, the method described here should solve the problem of nonspecific product synthesis. We obtained viral RNA from infected samples by freezing and thawing; we rapidly synthesized cDNA from RNA, and then amplified the cDNA by rapid PCR in 10 Min. Finally, the PCR products were hybridized and quickly confirmed to be the target analyte on a DNA chip. Our newly proposed methods overcome the drawbacks of PCR-based detection and provide three additional advantages, namely, rapidly obtaining large amounts of RNA from samples, quickly detecting infective or pathogenic genes, and speedily confirming the detected exogenous genes. This application might be useful for detecting viral RNA and for the diagnosis of RNA virus-mediated diseases.

Alternating Electric Field-Based Static Gesture-Recognition Technology.

Currently, gesture recognition based on electric-field detection technology has received extensive attention, which is mostly used to recognize the position and the movement of the hand, and rarely used for identification of specific gestures. A non-contact gesture-recognition technology based on the alternating electric-field detection scheme is proposed, which can recognize static gestures in different states and dynamic gestures. The influence of the hand on the detection system is analyzed from the principle of electric-field detection. A simulation model of the system is established to investigate the charge density on the hand surface and the potential change of the sensing electrodes. According to the simulation results, the system structure is improved, and the signal-processing circuit is designed to collect the signal of sensing electrodes. By collecting a large amount of data from different operators, the tree-model recognition algorithm is designed and a gesture-recognition experiment is implemented. The results show that the gesture-recognition correct rate is over 90%. With advantages of high response speed, low cost, small volume, and immunity to the surrounding environment, the system could be assembled on a robot that communicates with operators.

An Interdigital Electrode Probe for Detection, Localization and Evaluation of Surface Notch-Type Damage in Metals.

Available microwave notch-type damage detection sensors are typically based on monitoring frequency shift or magnitude changes. However, frequency shift testing needs sweep-frequency data that make scanning detection becomes difficult and time-consuming. This work presents a microwave near-field nondestructive testing sensor for detecting sub-millimeter notch-type damage detection in metallic surfaces. The sensor is loaded with an interdigital electrode element in an open-ended coaxial. It is simple to fabricate and inexpensive, as it is etched on the RC4003 patch by using printed circuit board technology. The detection is achieved by monitoring changes in reflection amplitude, which is caused by perturbing the electromagnetic field around the interdigital structure. The proposed sensor was tested on a metallic plate with different defects, and the experimental results indicated that the interdigital electrode probe can determine the orientation, localization and dimension of surface notch-type damage.

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification for visual detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus using gold nanoparticles.

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) eradicates the need of thermocycler in DNA amplification. Signals are usually obtained via fluorometry or turbidimetry, but such methods need improvement in order to become more effortless and reliable. The authors describe a set of six specific primers targeting the species-specific tlh gene of Vibrio parahaemolyticus which were used in accelerated LAMP reaction. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were functionalized with streptavidin (Avidin-AuNPs), and engineered to signal the LAMP reaction. Two of the loop primers for LAMP were biotinylated and then can produce a DNA that can cause clusterization of Avidin-AuNPs based on the formation of avidin-biotin complex. This leads to a color change of the solution from red to blue. Amplification is completed within 30 min and can be visually detected within 5 min. The detection limit of the method is found to be 8.6 cfu per reaction. This visual detection scheme does not require any fluorescent reagents and detection instruments. Conceivably, the method has a wide scope because such Avidin-AuNPs can be used as nanoprobes for a variety of other LAMP products. This rapid and universal strategy holds promise in point of care testing and food testing, particularly in resource-limited regions. Graphical abstract Six specific primers (two of them are biotinylated) were used to realize the accelerated Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification. Streptavidin modified gold nanoparticles (Avidin-AuNPs) cluster on the DNA products, leading to the apparent change of color from red to blue, which is readily identified even by unaided eye.

Rapid authentication of characteristic milk powders by recombinase polymerase amplification assays.

The authentication of dairy species has great significance for food safety. This study focused on a more rapid method for identifying major dairy species, and specific recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA)-based assays for cattle, goat, sheep, camel and donkey were developed. Through the developed RPA-based assays, goats and sheep could be simultaneously identified and bovine families could be differentiated. The performances of the RPA assays were validated using 37 milk powder samples, of which 16.2% (6/37) were suspected of being adulterated and 24.3% (9/37) were potentially at risk of being wrongly identified as adulteration. The effectiveness of the developed assays for crude DNA detection was also validated by a rapid nucleic acid extraction kit, and results showed that the presence of large amounts of protein and fat did not affect the qualitative results. Therefore, these assays could combine with the rapid nucleic acids extraction methods for being used in field detection.

Three-dimensional electrochemical-magnetic-thermal coupling model for lithium-ion batteries and its application in battery health monitoring and fault diagnosis.

Storage batteries with elevated energy density, superior safety and economic costs continues to escalate. Batteries can pose safety hazards due to internal short circuits, open circuits and other malfunctions during usage, hence real-time surveillance and error diagnosis of the battery's operational state is imperative. In this paper, a three-dimensional model of electrochemical-magnetic field-thermal coupling is formulated with lithium-ion pouch cells as the research focus, and the spatial distribution pattern of the physical field such as magnetic field and temperature when the battery is operational is acquired. Furthermore, this manuscript also investigates the diagnostic methodology for defective batteries with internal short circuits and fissures, that is, the operational state of the battery is evaluated and diagnosed by the distribution of the magnetic field surrounding the battery. To substantiate the method's practical viability, the present study extends its examination to the 18650-battery pack. We obtained the magnetic field images of the normal operation of the battery pack and the failure state of some batteries and analyzed the relationship between the magnetic field distribution characteristics and the performance of the battery pack, providing a new method for the health monitoring and fault diagnosis of the battery pack. This non-contact method incurs no damage to the battery, concurrently exhibiting elevated sensitivity and extremely rapid response time. Meanwhile, it provides an effective means for non-destructive research on the batteries and can be applied to areas such as battery safety screening and non-destructive testing. This research not only helps to facilitate our understanding of the battery's operating mechanism, but also provides robust support for safe operation and optimal battery design.

Portable one-step effervescence tablet-based microextraction combined with smartphone digital image colorimetry: Toward field and rapid detection of trace nickel ion.

In this study, the one-step switchable hydrophilic solvent (SHS)-based effervescence tablet microextraction (ETME) was coupled with smartphone digital image colorimetry (SDIC) for the field detection of nickel ion (Ni2+) for the first time. Both extractant and CO2 were generated in situ when the novel SHS-based effervescence tablet was placed in the sample solution. The complexant 1-(2-pyridinylazo)-2-naphthaleno (PAN) dissolved from the effervescence tablet to form a stable complex with Ni2+, and the extractant was uniformly dispersed in the sample solution under the action of CO2 and fully in contact with Ni-PAN, which enabled efficient extraction of Ni2+. The color changes of the extraction phase were captured by smartphone, then a quantitative relationship between the concentrations of Ni2+ and color intensity of images captured using a smartphone was established by customized applet WASDIC, which realized quantitative analysis of Ni2+ in different samples. Under optimal conditions, the enhancement factor (EF) of the proposed method was 65.1, the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 1.69 and 5.64 µg L-1, respectively. The developed method was successfully applied to the detection of trace Ni2+ in the environmental samples and natural medicines. And the applicability of the method for use in field analysis was validated.

Establishment of a Nucleic Acid Detection Method for Norovirus GII.2 Genotype Based on RT-RPA and CRISPR/Cas12a-LFS.

To establish a rapid detection method for norovirus GII.2 genotype, this study employed reverse transcription recombinase polymerase amplification (RT-RPA) combined with CRISPR/Cas12a and lateral flow strip (RT-RPA-Cas12a-LFS). Here, the genome of norovirus GII.2 genotype was compared to identify highly conserved sequences, facilitating the design of RT-RPA primers and crRNA specific to the conserved regions of norovirus GII.2. Subsequently, the reaction parameters of RT-RPA were optimized and evaluated using agar-gel electrophoresis and LFS. The results indicate that the conserved sequences of norovirus GII.2 were successfully amplified through RT-RPA at 37°C for 25 minutes. Additionally, CRISPR/Cas12a-mediated cleavage detection was achieved through LFS at 37°C within 10 minutes using the amplification products as templates. Including the isothermal amplification reaction time, the total time is 35 minutes. The established RT-RPA-Cas12a-LFS method demonstrated specific detection of norovirus GII.2, yielding negative results for other viral genomes, and exhibited an excellent detection limit of 10 copies/µl. The RT-RPA-Cas12a-LFS method was further compared with qRT-PCR by analyzing 60 food-contaminated samples. The positive conformity rate was 100%, the negative conformity rate was 95.45%, and the overall conformity rate reached 98.33%. This detection method for norovirus GII.2 genotype is cost-effective, highly sensitive, specific, and easy to operate, offering a promising technical solution for field-based detection of the norovirus GII.2 genotype.
