Platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) LAMP Detection Kit
The platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus), is an iconic Australian monotreme inhabiting freshwater streams and rivers across eastern Australia and Tasmania. Platypus populations are declining due to habitat loss, drought, altered river flows, entanglement in fishing gear, and disease, with the species now listed as near-threatened. Mychophthirius platypodichthys, a water mould causing ulcerative dermatitis, poses a significant emerging disease threat. Molecular tools targeting platypus-specific genomic sequences enable environmental DNA-based population surveillance, non-invasive monitoring of distribution, and genetic diversity assessments to guide conservation management.
Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) is a molecular biology technique that copies DNA or RNA at a single, constant temperature. By eliminating the rapid heat cycling required by traditional PCR, this method relies on specialized strand-displacement polymerases to unzip and replicate genetic material.
This biological approach removes the need for expensive, bulky thermal cyclers, allowing assays to run on simple, low-cost heating equipment. Delivering highly sensitive results in just 20 to 30 minutes, isothermal amplification provides a fast, affordable, and exceptionally portable solution for field testing and decentralized point-of-care diagnostics.
The Platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) LAMP Detection Kit simplifies detection of platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) nucleic acid by amplifying target DNA at a constant temperature.
- All-in-one box: reagents and plasticware included
- Results in under 30 min
Platform: Genie LITE, Genie III and Genie HT
Application: Nucleic Acid detection of platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) genes
Target Analyte: Platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) DNA
