AI Technical Summary
Early diagnosis of invasive candidiasis is difficult in existing technologies. Liquid PCR reagents are expensive to transport and store, and the test results are easily affected by multiple primer pairs, resulting in insufficient sensitivity and accuracy.
We designed specific primers and fluorescent probes, and used mutant Taq DNA polymerase to prepare lyophilized PCR reagents, including oligonucleotide primers and probes, Taq DNA polymerase, and lyophilization protectants, for the detection of invasive Candida albicans nucleic acid. This avoids primer interference and improves sensitivity and stability.
It enables rapid and accurate differentiation of Candida species, reduces transportation and storage costs, simplifies the detection process, and improves sensitivity and reliability of test results.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of biological detection technology, and in particular to a lyophilized PCR reagent and kit for the detection of nucleic acid in invasive Candida albicans. Background Technology
[0002] Candida species are widespread in nature and are the most common opportunistic or conditionally pathogenic fungi, causing diseases that rank first among invasive fungal diseases (IFD). Clinically, Candida albicans is the most common, but there are more than 16 non-Candida species, among which Candida tropicalis and Candida glabrata are relatively common. Candidiasis is more common in immunocompromised patients and can invade local skin, mucous membranes, and various tissues and organs throughout the body, with diverse clinical manifestations and varying degrees of severity. In recent years, with the increase in risk factors such as tumor chemotherapy, organ transplantation, glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, and broad-spectrum antibiotics, the incidence of invasive candiddiasis has shown a significant upward trend. Early diagnosis of candidiasis, especially invasive candidiasis, is often difficult, leading to delays in antifungal treatment and affecting patient prognosis.
[0003] Currently, commonly used clinical diagnostic methods include: direct microscopic examination of fungi, fungal culture and identification, fungal serological testing, and histopathological examination. Each of these methods has certain limitations: direct microscopic examination of fungi is simple to perform and provides rapid results, but suffers from false negatives and low sensitivity, and relies heavily on the experience of the laboratory personnel, making it difficult to distinguish the origin of the fungal flora; fungal culture is an important diagnostic method for fungal infections, valuable for diagnosing infection and identifying the pathogenic fungal species, but it is time-consuming, has a low positive rate and low sensitivity, and struggles to differentiate between colonization and infection; serological antigen testing is suitable for the early diagnosis of invasive fungal diseases, is quick, and provides rapid results, serving as a valuable supplement to traditional mycological examinations, but the results are influenced by many factors, have poor repeatability, and only have corresponding methods for a few fungi; histopathological examination is definitive evidence for invasive fungal diseases, but it is difficult to identify the fungal species, involves invasive sampling, and requires the assistance of other methods.
[0004] Molecular biology methods can detect very low levels of fungal DNA in a short time, exhibiting high sensitivity and specificity, which is beneficial for the early diagnosis of fungal infections. Multiplex fluorescent PCR is highly automated, eliminating the need for electrophoresis and hybridization, effectively reducing misinterpretations caused by contamination. Furthermore, due to its highly sensitive fluorescence changes, it is more sensitive than traditional PCR. In addition, it is simple to operate, requiring only one step to obtain results, and is convenient, rapid, and accurate.
[0005] Currently, multiplex quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) is available for detecting Candida. For example, Chinese patent application CN201711395514 discloses a primer-probe combination and kit for simultaneously detecting four Candida species. This method uses one primer pair and one probe to detect Candida genus (Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Candida glabrata, and Candida parapsilosis), but it cannot distinguish between Candida species, which is not conducive to targeted drug treatment for Candida species in the later stages. For instance, Chinese patent application CN202311854288 discloses a fluorescent probe combination, detection kit, and application for detecting fungi in sputum. Each Candida species is detected using one primer pair and one probe. Although it can distinguish Candida species, the presence of multiple primer pairs in a single reaction system can lead to primer interference, affecting the accuracy of the detection results. Furthermore, all of the above methods use liquid reagents containing temperature-sensitive Taq enzymes, primers, and probes, requiring low-temperature transportation and storage to prevent changes in their properties and subsequent inactivation. The preparation process is also cumbersome, and the storage and transportation costs are high. Summary of the Invention

[0044] Detection Procedure for Lyophilized PCR Reagents and Kits for the Detection of Invasive Pulmonary Candida albicans Nucleic Acid
[0045] 1. Sample pretreatment
[0046] 1.1 Sputum
[0047] Take 200 μL of sample, add 2 times the volume of 4% NaOH, and incubate at 37℃ and 600 rpm for 15–30 min to fully liquefy the sputum, and use it as the sample to be tested.
[0048] 1.2 Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid
[0049] Clarified sample: No liquefaction is required; it can be used directly as the sample to be tested.
[0050] For samples containing a small amount of viscous sputum: Centrifuge as much bronchoalveolar lavage fluid as possible, and collect the lower viscous portion. Then, liquefy the viscous portion as you would a sputum sample and use it as the sample to be tested.
[0051] 2. Sample processing
[0052] Take 400 μL of the sample to be tested, ATG positive control, and ATG negative control. It is recommended to use the nucleic acid extraction reagent (Su Tai Medical Device Registration No. 20250032) produced by Jiangsu Kangwei Century Biotechnology Co., Ltd., and perform nucleic acid extraction according to its instructions.
[0053] 3. Sample addition
[0054] 3.1 Preparation of reaction solution: Calculate the required number of reactions based on the number of samples to be tested. If the number of samples is n, then the total number of reactions N = n + 2. Take N tubes of ATG lyophilized reaction powder, centrifuge for 30 seconds to ensure that the ACP lyophilized reaction powder reaches the bottom of the tube, and set aside for later use.
[0055] 3.2 Sample addition: Gently open the cap of the eight-tube containing the lyophilized powder, transfer 25 μL of the extracted test sample, ATG positive control and ATG negative control nucleic acid into the eight-tube, and tighten the cap.
[0056] 3.3 Vortex for 30 seconds until completely dissolved and the solution is clear with no white lyophilized residue. Remove air bubbles and centrifuge briefly for 30 seconds. Set aside for later use.
[0057] 4. PCR amplification: This invention uses an ABI 7500 real-time quantitative PCR instrument for detection. The pre-denaturation process is performed at 95℃ for 30 seconds, followed by denaturation at 95℃ for 10 seconds, and annealing and extension at 58℃ for 30 seconds. This process is repeated for 40 cycles. Candida albicans is detected in the ROX channel, Candida tropicalis in the FAM channel, Candida glabrata in the CY5 channel, and human β-actin gene in the VIC channel.
[0058] 5 Results Analysis
[0059] 5.1 Quality Control Standards
[0060] ATG positive control: The Ct value of the target corresponding to the FAM, ROX, VIC and CY5 channels should be ≤35;
[0061] ATG negative control: FAM, ROX and CY5 channels showed no amplification curve (No Ct) or Ct value > 38, and the corresponding target Ct value of VIC channel should be ≤ 35;
[0062] All of the above requirements must be met simultaneously in the same experiment; otherwise, the experiment will be invalid and the test must be repeated.
[0063] 5.2 Result Determination
[0064]
[0065] For samples that test positive for Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, or Candida glabrata, the internal standard test result is not required. For negative samples, the internal standard test should be positive. If the internal standard test is negative, the test result of the sample is invalid. The cause should be found and eliminated, and the sample should be retested for repeated experiments.
