<front><div type="abstract" xml:lang="en"><p>In this study we developed and evaluated a <italic>Brugia Hha</italic>
I repeat loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for the rapid detection of <italic>Brugia</italic>
genomic DNA. Amplification was detected using turbidity or fluorescence as readouts. Reactions generated a turbidity threshold value or a clear visual positive within 30 minutes using purified genomic DNA equivalent to one microfilaria. Similar results were obtained using DNA isolated from blood samples containing <italic>B. malayi</italic>
microfilariae. Amplification was specific to <italic>B. malayi</italic>
and <italic>B. timori</italic>
, as no turbidity was observed using DNA from the related filarial parasites <italic>Wuchereria bancrofti</italic>
, <italic>Onchocerca volvulus</italic>
or <italic>Dirofilaria immitis</italic>
, or from human or mosquito. Furthermore, the assay was most robust using a new strand-displacing DNA polymerase termed <italic>Bst 2.0</italic>
compared to wild-type <italic>Bst</italic>
DNA polymerase, large fragment. The results indicate that the <italic>Brugia Hha</italic>
I repeat LAMP assay is rapid, sensitive and <italic>Brugia</italic>
-specific with the potential to be developed further as a field tool for diagnosis and mapping of brugian filariasis.</p>

<abstract><p>In this study we developed and evaluated a <italic>Brugia Hha</italic>
I repeat loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for the rapid detection of <italic>Brugia</italic>
genomic DNA. Amplification was detected using turbidity or fluorescence as readouts. Reactions generated a turbidity threshold value or a clear visual positive within 30 minutes using purified genomic DNA equivalent to one microfilaria. Similar results were obtained using DNA isolated from blood samples containing <italic>B. malayi</italic>
microfilariae. Amplification was specific to <italic>B. malayi</italic>
and <italic>B. timori</italic>
, as no turbidity was observed using DNA from the related filarial parasites <italic>Wuchereria bancrofti</italic>
, <italic>Onchocerca volvulus</italic>
or <italic>Dirofilaria immitis</italic>
, or from human or mosquito. Furthermore, the assay was most robust using a new strand-displacing DNA polymerase termed <italic>Bst 2.0</italic>
compared to wild-type <italic>Bst</italic>
DNA polymerase, large fragment. The results indicate that the <italic>Brugia Hha</italic>
I repeat LAMP assay is rapid, sensitive and <italic>Brugia</italic>
-specific with the potential to be developed further as a field tool for diagnosis and mapping of brugian filariasis.</p>

<abstract abstract-type="summary"><title>Author Summary</title>
<p>Brugian filariasis is a debilitating neglected tropical disease caused by infection with the filarial parasites <italic>Brugia malayi</italic>
or <italic>Brugia timori</italic>
. Adult worms live in the lymphatic system and produce large numbers of microfilariae that predominantly circulate in the blood at night. Bloodsucking mosquitoes spread the disease by ingesting microfilariae that develop into infective stage larvae in the insect. In rural areas, diagnosis still relies largely on microscopic examination of night blood and morphological assessment of stained microfilariae. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a technique that can amplify DNA with high specificity, sensitivity and rapidity under isothermal conditions. The operational simplicity, versatility and low-cost of the technique make it particularly appealing for use in diagnosis and geographical mapping of neglected tropical diseases. In the present study, we have developed and evaluated a <italic>Brugia Hha</italic>
I repeat LAMP assay for the rapid detection of <italic>B. malayi</italic>
and <italic>B. timori</italic>
genomic DNA. The results indicate that the <italic>Brugia Hha</italic>
I repeat LAMP diagnostic assay is sensitive and rapid, detecting a single microfilariae in blood within 30 minutes, and <italic>Brugia-</italic>
specific. The test has the potential to be developed further as a field tool for use in the implementation and management of mass drug administration programs for brugian filariasis.</p>
