Popis: |
Clinical diagnosis of Treponema pallidum subspecies pallidum (TPA), the causative agent of syphilis, depends upon serological testing, which has reduced sensitivity for some stages of the disease. Accompanying methods to complement serological testing also have distinct limitations. In this work, authors develop an assay that combines PCR with CRISPR-LwCas13a, and demonstrate sensitivity and specificity on clinically confirmed syphilis samples. |
