Development of a Nucleic Acid Lateral Flow Immunoassay for the Detection of Human Polyomavirus BK
The BK virus (BKV) is an emerging pathogen in immunocompromised individuals and widespread in the human population. Polymerase chain reaction is a simple and highly sensitive method for detecting BKV, but it is time consuming and requires expensive instruments and expert judgment. The lateral flow a...

description | The BK virus (BKV) is an emerging pathogen in immunocompromised individuals and widespread in the human population. Polymerase chain reaction is a simple and highly sensitive method for detecting BKV, but it is time consuming and requires expensive instruments and expert judgment. The lateral flow assay, a rapid, low-cost, minimal-labor, and easy-to-use diagnostic method, was successfully applied for pathogen detection. In this study, we used oligonucleotide probes to develop a simple and rapid sandwich-type lateral flow immunoassay for detecting BKV DNA within 45 minutes. The detection limit for the synthetic single-stranded DNA was 5 nM. The specificity study showed no cross-reactivity with other polyomaviruses, such as JC virus and simian virus 40. For the Escherichia coli containing BKV plasmid cultured samples, the sensitivity was determined to be 10(7) copies/mL. The approach offers great potential for BKV detection of various target analytes in point-of-care settings. |
