Resumo: | Point-of-care testing (POCT) is a laboratory test that is performed outside a centralized laboratory setting. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a popular method for the amplification of nucleic acids in POCT due to its rapidity, high specificity, and robustness. Because it is very efficient under isothermal conditions it can be carried out in devices like the Doctor Vida Pocket (DVPocket). Current molecular methods for the detection of the -13910 C/T polymorphism associated with lactase persistence (LP) rely on invasive samples and require the shipment of samples to centralized laboratories resulting slow turnaround times. The detection of Legionella in water samples, also requires the shipment of samples and the current gold standard is time-consuming and has low sensitivity. To address these limitations a LAMP-based lactose intolerance kit was adapted into the point-of-care (POC) setting by using buccal swabs or capillary blood samples and carrying out the assays in the DVPocket, and validated with both samples from 58 volunteers. Several sample collection and dispensing solutions were assessed to create a user-friendly sample preparation. The kit’s assay maintained its quality in the DVPocket when using buccal swabs and capillary blood, and the overall accuracy was up to 96.5% for buccal swabs and 96.2% for blood. For the Legionella test, two LAMP assays were developed for the detection of Legionella spp. and distinction of L. pneumophila. Assays were performed and optimized in the quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) instrument, using DNA and inactivated particles, and then performed in the DVPocket. The results showed the detection of Legionella spp. and L. pneumophila in under 1h in the DVPocket. Thus, this study proposes the first POC test for the detection of the -13910 C/T polymorphism in 1h30min and demonstrates the first steps towards the on-site detection of Legionella in water samples, using the POC platform Doctor Vida |

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) é um método popular para a amplificação de ácidos nucleicos em POCT devido à sua rapidez, elevada especificidade e robustez. Por ser muito eficiente em condições isotérmicas, pode ser realizado em dispositivos como o Doctor Vida Pocket (DVPocket). Os métodos moleculares para a deteção do polimorfismo -13910 C/T associado à persistência da lactase (LP) requerem amostras invasivas e o seu envio para laboratórios, o que resulta em tempos de resposta elevados. A deteção de Legionella em amostras de água também requere o envio de amostras, e o método de referência é demorado e pouco sensível. Para resolver estas limitações, um kit de intolerância à lactose baseado em LAMP foi adaptado para o point-of-care (POC) usando zaragatoas bucais ou amostras de sangue capilar e realizando os ensaios no DVPocket, e validado com ambas as amostras de 58 voluntários. Várias soluções para a colheita de amostra foram avaliadas para criar uma preparação de amostra user-friendly. O kit manteve a sua qualidade no DVPocket com amostras de zaragatoa bucal e sangue, e a precisão foi de até 96,5% para zaragatoas bucais e 96,2% para sangue. Para o teste da Legionella, foram desenvolvidos dois ensaios LAMP para a deteção de Legionella spp. e distinção de L. pneumophila. Os ensaios foram realizados e otimizados no equipamento de PCR quantitativo (qPCR), com amostras de DNA e partículas inativadas, e depois realizados no DVPocket. Os resultados mostraram a deteção de Legionella spp. e L. pneumophila em menos de 1 h no DVPocket. Assim, este estudo propõe o primeiro teste POC para deteção do polimorfismo -13910 C/T em 1h30min e demonstra os primeiros passos para a deteção de Legionella em amostras de água, utilizando a plataforma POC Doctor Vida.Doria, GonçaloMota, LuísRUNConceição, Mariana Martins da2022-11-142025-10-01T00:00:00Z2022-11-14T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/146080enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:27:02Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/146080Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:52:27.883253Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
