ABSTRACT
The rapid on-site nucleic acid detection method is urgently required in many fields. In this study, we report a portable and highly integrated device for DNA detection that combines ultrafast DNA adsorption and rapid DNA amplification. The device, known as silicon film mediated recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) for nucleic acid detection (SMART), can detect target DNA in less than 25 min from plants, animals, and microbes. Utilizing SMART, transgenic maize was rapidly detected with high selectivity and sensitivity. The sensitivity threshold of the SMART for transgenic maize genomic DNA was 50 copies. The detection results of genuine samples containing plants, animals, and microbes by SMART were consistent with the conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, demonstrating the high robustness of SMART. Additionally, SMART does not require expensive equipment and is fast, affordable, and user-friendly, making it suited for the broad-scale on-site detection of nucleic acids.
