A recent outbreak of porcine circovirus-like virus (PCLV), a virus that may be associated with porcine diarrhea, has been reported in swine herds in China. The virus is spreading rapidly, causing huge economic losses to the swine farming industry. To achieve the rapid, inexpensive, and sensitive detection of PCLV, we combined loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and the CRISPR/Cas12a system, whose fluorescence intensity readout can detect PCLV ORF4 gene levels as low as 10 copies. To overcome the need for sophisticated equipment, lateral flow strip reading technology was introduced for the first time in a LAMP-Cas12a-based system to detect PCLV. The lateral flow strip (LFS) results were readout by the naked eye, and the method was highly sensitive with a detection limit of 10 copies, with a detection time of about 60 min. In addition, the method is highly specific and has no cross-reactivity with other related viruses. In conclusion, LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12a-based assays have the advantages of rapidity, accuracy, portability, low cost, and visualization of the results. They therefore have great potential, especially for areas where specialized equipment is lacking, and can expect to be an ideal method for early diagnosis and on-site detection of PCLV.
