We are excited to share that our project partner, AIT, recently presented their advancements in developing a nucleic acid-based rapid diagnostic test for West Nile virus detection at the Point-of-Care, Biosensors, and Rapid Dx Europe conference (24 June 2024 – 25 June 2024).
Their innovative approach combines Recombinase Polymerase Amplification (RPA) with a lateral flow device for signal read-out. This method enables the detection of as few as 500 copies per reaction of viral nucleic acid.
See our publications section for the presentation material.: A nucleic acid-based rapid diagnostic test for detection of West Nile Virus (WNV) (zenodo.org).
