Abstract:
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-associated proteins(CRISPR-Cas)system has emerged as a next-generation nucleic acid detection tool due to its precise gene editing capabilities and exhibits high specificity and significant potential for application in the diagnosis of pathogen.However,the inherent shortcomings of CRISPR-Cas,including insufficient sensitivity of the traditional CRISPR-Cas system,complex operation of the CRISPR-Cas system combined with amplification,and limited capability for multi-target detection,have significantly constrained its practical applications in clinical settings.With the advantages of miniaturization,integration and automation,microfluidics has emerged as a promising tool for advancing the development of point-of-care testing(POCT)platforms.The integration of microfluidic technology with CRISPR-Cas system not only enhances the detection throughput and efficiency significantly,but also drives innovation in the development of portable POCT devices.In this paper,a comprehensive review of the research advancements of CRISPR-Cas nucleic acid detection platform facilitated by microfluidic technology was presented,with a focus on their application in detection of pathogens associated with clinical disease.This study aimed to explore emerging molecular diagnostic methodologies and offered novel insights for future research in clinical pathogen detection.
