Principle and application of isothermal amplification technology / 中华检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Isothermal amplification technology is a new class of nucleic acid amplification technology that performs amplification under constant temperature conditions. With the advantages of simple operation, high sensitivity and specificity, this kind of technology shows a good application prospect in clinical detection and scientific research. The principle, characteristics and applications of loop-mediated isothermal amplification(LAMP), crossing priming amplification (CPA),strand displacement amplification(SDA), recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA), nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (NASBA), rolling circle amplification (RCA) and helicase-dependent amplification (HDA) are reviewed in this paper.
