Abstract:
Rapid detection of infection pathogens is of great importance to the prevention and control of infectious diseases.Compared with traditional approaches,point-of-care testing (POCT) technologies promise great advantages in simple, rapid and portable detection of pathogens.In this review, the technologies, categories, developments and applications of POCT in detection of infectious pathogens are elaborated.Furthermore, the future developments of POCT detection of infectious pathogen are also discussed.This review focuses on loop-mediated isothermal amplification ( LAMP) technology, microfluidic chip and biosensor technology in the POCT detection of infectious pathogens while elaborating on the application of these new technologies associated with POCT detection.
