Embodiment 1

[0048] Example 1 designed LAMP primers for Candida auris, and verified the performance of the designed LAMP primers. For common microorganisms, there are a large number of literature reports that can be applied to the detection of genes; but for the research and detection of Candida auris, there are very few, and there is no reported detection gene suitable for Candida auris, which undoubtedly increases the risk of detection of Candida auris. Difficulty of successful primer design for the detection of Candida.

[0049] How to select a detection gene that can be used for Candida auris, first determine whether the gene has the basic conditions as a detection gene, that is, to ensure that the selected gene has a good degree of conservation (high coverage) in this species, It is also necessary to ensure that there is no excessive similarity (high specificity) between the gene and other species. The inventors searched the Candida auris gene sequences entered in the NCBI Gene librar...

Embodiment 2

[0082] Embodiment 2 specificity test

[0083] The first set of LAMP primers was used to perform LAMP detection on the plasmid DNA containing the gene fragment of Candida auris to be detected (SEQ ID NO: 7), one Candida auris strain and six other bacterial species, as shown in Table 2.

[0084] Judge the LAMP reaction results according to the following principles.

[0085] The results judged as a positive reaction were as follows: real-time fluorescent PCR instrument was used for amplification, the reaction time was 50 minutes, and the real-time fluorescence curve and its peak time were observed. Use sterilized purified water as a negative control test, and the result of the negative control test should be negative.

[0086] 1) If Ct≤30, the LAMP test result is determined to be positive;

[0087] 2) If Ct>45, it is determined that the LAMP test result is negative;

[0088] 3) If 30

Embodiment 3

[0094] Embodiment 3 sensitivity test

[0095] Inoculate the plasmid bacterial liquid containing the gene fragment of Candida auris to be detected (SEQ ID NO: 7) in the LB liquid medium containing ampicillin (concentration ratio: 1:1000), after normal culture for 16 hours, take the ampicillin-containing According to the method of kit instructions, plasmid DNA was extracted (Kangwei century plasmid DNA small extraction kit), and the concentration and purity of plasmid DNA were measured by NanoDrop2000C ultra-micro spectrophotometer. At the same time, the extracted nucleic acid DNA was quantified using the Invitrogen Qubit 2.0 Fluorescence Quantitative Instrument and the Invitrogen Qubit Quantitative Detection Kit, and the copy number was calculated. Finally, use the LAMP test method of the present invention to measure the above DNA samples.

[0096] When the copy number of the plasmid DNA containing the Candida auris gene fragment to be detected is 500 copy / μl, the reaction sho...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a LAMP primer set, a kit and a detection method of candida auris. The LAMP primer set comprises outer primers, inner primers and loop primers. The outer primers are shown in SEQ ID NO:1-SEQ ID NO:2, the inner primers are shown in SEQ ID NO:3-SEQ ID NO:4 and the loop primers are shown in SEQ ID NO:5-SEQ ID NO:6. The provided kit comprises the primer set. The provided method for detecting the candida auris comprises using the primer set to perform a loop-mediated isothermal nucleic acid amplification reaction on samples to be detected, and based on reaction results, whether the samples to be detected are infected with the candida auris is determined. The provided primer set is used as a LAMP constant temperature amplification primer, has high sensitivity, strong specificity and also high repeatability, and is applied to detection of the candida auris with short detection time and convenient detection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a LAMP primer set, kit and detection method for Candida auris. Background technique [0002] Candida auris (Candida auris) is a new pathogenic fungal species discovered in Japan in 2009. It has the characteristics of multi-drug resistance and high lethality, and is a relatively large threat to the human body. The usual detection technology for pathogenic microorganisms is to use a fluorescent quantitative PCR instrument for detection. This type of method uses fluorescent dyes or fluorescent probes, and uses a pair of amplification primers to detect the target nucleic acid sequence in the sample. However, the nucleic acid amplification steps used in this type of method require frequent heating and cooling processes, and light detection takes at least 1.5 hours, and requires the use of expensive equipment, such as fluorescent quantitative PCR instruments, electrophoresis instruments, a...
