Abstract: A microfluidic device includes an inlet port configured to receive a sample, a first reaction chamber fluidically coupled to the inlet port, a first pump fluidically coupled to the inlet port, a second pump fluidically coupled to a mixing chamber, a metering channel fluidically coupled to the first reaction chamber and to the mixing chamber, and one or more second reaction chambers fluidically coupled to the mixing chamber. The first pump is configured to move fluid from the inlet port to the first reaction chamber and from the first pump to the inlet port. The second pump is configured to move fluid from the second pump to the mixing chamber, from the first reaction chamber to the mixing chamber, and from the mixing chamber to the one or more second reaction chambers.

Abstract: A flu assay system including a sample module, a microfluidic nucleic acid amplification device, and an analyzer to facilitate fully automated nested recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) on a sample delivered to the nucleic acid amplification device via the sample module. The assay includes providing a sample to a microfluidic device, and amplifying a target polynucleotide sequence in the sample. Amplifying the target polynucleotide sequence includes performing a first round of amplification on the sample to yield a first amplification product, and performing a second round of amplification on the first amplification product to yield a second amplification product. The second amplification product includes a smaller sequence completely contained within the first amplification product produced during the first round of amplification.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods and compositions for detecting a target nucleic acid sequence using a dual-hapten probe. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to using recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) and a dual-hapten probe to detect a target nucleic acid sequence. In some cases, the detection is on lateral flow strips.
