Abstrakt: Miniaturization of nucleic acid tests (NATs) into portable, inexpensive detection platforms may aid disease diagnosis in point-of-care (POC) settings. Colorimetric signals are ideal readouts for portable NATs, and it remains of high demand to develop color readouts that are simple, quantitative, and versatile. Thus motivated, we report a fast light-activated substrate chromogenic polymerase chain reaction (FLASH PCR) that uses DNA intercalating dyes (DIDs) to enable colorimetric nucleic acid detection and quantification. The FLASH system is established on our finding that DID-DNA intercalation can promote the rapid photooxidation of chromogenic substrates through light-induced production of singlet oxygen. Using this principle, we have successfully converted DID-based fluorescent PCR assays into colorimetric FLASH PCR. To demonstrate the practical applicability of FLASH PCR to POC diagnosis, we also fabricated two readout platforms, including a portable electronic FLASH reader and a paper-based FLASH strip. Using the FLASH reader, we were able to detect as low as 60 copies of DNA standards, a limit of detection (LOD) comparable with commercial quantitative PCR. The FLASH strip further enables the reader-free detection of PCR amplicons by converting the colorimetric signal into the visual measurement of distance as a readout. Finally, the practical applicability of the FLASH PCR was demonstrated by the detection and/or quantification of nucleic acid markers in diverse clinical and biological samples.
