ABSTRACT
The development of field-deployable detection platform amenable for multiplexed genes testing will significantly improve the efficiency and reliability during point-of-care testing (POCT) applications. In this regard, an orthogonal CRISPR-Cas-mediated multiplexed lateral flow assay (designated as OC-MLFA) is proposed for SARS-CoV-2 genome detection. Taking the advantage of activation and cleavage preferences between Cas12a and Cas13a, orthogonal (two-independent-channel signal readout) CRISPR-Cas system is investigated. Lateral flow strips with two target lines are designed to accommodate the orthogonal CRISPR system. The interference between Cas12a and Cas13a channels can be effectively eliminated via the elaborate nucleic acids and lateral flow strips design. The high preamplification efficiency from reverse transcription recombinase polymerase amplification (RT-RPA) and Cas enzyme mediated trans-cleavage process bring the sensitivity of our OC-MLFA method to 10 copies per test (30 µL). Nasopharyngeal swab clinical samples with different cycle threshold (Ct) values according to the RT-PCR method were analyzed with the proposed OC-MLFA, during which 76 out of 76 detection accuracy was obtained. Featured with the multiplexed genes detection simultaneously in one reaction and colorimetric readout through single strip, the OC-MLFA we proposed herein ensures great accuracy and efficiency, which endows promising field-deployable POCT application feasibility.
