Аннотация: Early diagnosis of tick-borne borreliosis determines the indications for etiotropic therapy, and the detection of borrelia in a tick that has bitten you serves as the basis for antibiotic prophylaxis. To determine the causative agent of borreliosis, PCR methods are most widely used, which requires special conditions for organizing Показать полностьюthe work of laboratories and the use of expensive equipment. In addition, the procedure for isolating bacterial DNA and subsequent amplification takes several hours of working time. At the same time, methods for detecting borrelia in the isothermal LAMP-reaction are described, which makes it possible to significantly speed up the diagnosis, does not require complex equipment and highly qualified personnel. It is also known that LAMP in some cases allows analysis without prior extraction of nucleic acids. The purpose was a development of a modified test for isothermal detection of DNA of borreliosis pathogens for an accelerated result and the possibility of excluding the stage of nucleic acid extraction. We used 40 samples of Borrelia DNA and 11 Ixodes persulcatus ticks. To shorten the detection time for Borrelia, the previously described LAMP method was modified by the introduction of additional loop primers. The copy number of the positive DNA sample of the borrelia plasmid was estimated using digital PCR. The results of the LAMP reaction were compared with those of the commercial PRC-RT test. The additional use of loop primers approximately halved the detection time for Borrelia DNA without affecting the comparative diagnostic efficiency. The analytical sensitivity limit of the modified LAMP method was 4 copies/μl or 21 molecules of the plasmid standard added to the reaction. In comparative testing with RT-PCR, the sensitivity of the LAMP method is 90%, and the specificity is 100%. The possibility of detecting borrelia in ticks without the stage of DNA extraction has been demonstrated for the first time. A modified isothermal method for the detection of pathogens of tick-borne borreliosis has been developed, which allows analysis within 20-30 minutes, including in ticks without preliminary DNA extraction.
