Abstract: Compositions and methods are described that are directed to specific and sensitive methods of target nucleic acid detection and more specifically detecting target nucleic acids directly from biological samples. The compositions and methods were developed to be easy to use involving a minimum number of steps and giving rapid and consistent results either at point of care or in high throughput situations. The compositions and methods are directed to labelled probes and their uses in Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) diagnostic tests to detect target DNA from the environment or from an individual and also to detect specific variants of the target DNA, both with similar sensitivity.

Abstract: A probe qPCR master mix is provided. In some embodiments, the master mix comprises nucleotides, an enzyme comprising a polymerase activity and a flap endonuclease activity, a chelating agent at a concentration greater than 5 ?M, and a divalent cation. The relatively high concentration of chelating agent stabilizes the flap endonuclease activity during storage. As such, the polymerase and flap endonuclease activities may be substantially the same before and after storing the master mix for 7 days at 37° C.
