LAMP assay for SARS. Positive signals were observed in the positive control (+ ve; lanes 1 and 26) and SARS samples (lanes 3–14), but not in the water control (lanes 15 and 27) and non-SARS samples (lanes 17–22). Lanes 23 and 24, positive LAMP products digested with XbaI and BglII, respectively. Lanes 2, 16, and 25, DNA markers as indicated. HMPV, human metapneumovirus; Adeno, adenovirus; RSV, respiratory syncytial virus; Flu A, influenza A virus; Flu B, influenza B; Rhino, rhinovirus.
