Data_Sheet_1_A novel detection method for the pathogenic Aeromonas hydrophila expressing aerA gene and/or hlyA gene based on dualplex RAA and CRISPR/Cas12a.PDF

Aeromonas hydrophila is an emerging waterborne and foodborne pathogen with pathogenicity to humans and warm water fishes, which severely threatens human health, food safety and aquaculture. A novel method for the rapid, accurate, and sensitive detection of pathogenic A. hydrophila is still needed to reduce the impact on human health and aquaculture. In this work, we developed a rapid, accurate, sensitive, and visual detection method (dRAA-CRISPR/Cas12a), without elaborate instruments, integrating the dualplex recombinase-assisted amplification (dRAA) assay and CRISPR/Cas12a system to detect pathogenic A. hydrophila expressing aerA and/or hlyA virulence genes. The dRAA-CRISPR/Cas12a method has high sensitivity, which can rapidly detect (about 45 min) A. hydrophila with the limit of detection in 2 copies of genomic DNA per reaction, and has high specificity for three pathogenic A. hydrophila strains (aerA+hlyA−, aerA−hlyA+, and aerA+hlyA+). Moreover, dRAA-CRISPR/Cas12a method shows satisfactory practicability in the analysis of the spiked human blood and stool and fish samples. These results demonstrate that our developed pathogenic A. hydrophila detection method, dRAA-CRISPR/Cas12a, is a promising potential method for the early diagnosis of human A. hydrophila infection and on-site detection of A. hydrophila in food and aquaculture.</p

Infectious Disease Diagnosis and Pathogen Identification Platform Based on Multiplex Recombinase Polymerase Amplification-Assisted CRISPR-Cas12a System

Controlling and mitigating infectious diseases caused by multiple pathogens or pathogens with several subtypes require multiplex nucleic acid detection platforms that can detect several target genes rapidly, specifically, sensitively, and simultaneously. Here, we develop a detection platform, termed Multiplex Assay of RPA and Collateral Effect of Cas12a-based System (MARPLES), based on multiplex nucleic acid amplification and Cas12a ssDNase activation to diagnose these diseases and identify their pathogens. We use the clinical specimens of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) and influenza A to evaluate the feasibility of MARPLES in diagnosing the disease and identifying the pathogen, respectively, and find that MARPLES can accurately diagnose the HFMD associated with enterovirus 71, coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16), CVA6, or CVA10 and identify the exact types of H1N1 and H3N2 in an hour, showing high sensitivity and specificity and 100% predictive agreement with qRT-PCR. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that MARPLES is a promising multiplex nucleic acid detection platform for disease diagnosis and pathogen identification
