Abstract
Methods for detecting single nucleotide polymorphisms in nucleotide sequences using LAMP reactions are provided herein. Generally, two sets of LAMP primers, a wild-type primer that matches expected DNA sequences and an SNP primer that matches the expected SNP DNA are provided. One method includes providing the wild-type primer and the SNP primer in separate wells of a multi-well microfluidic array device, adding the sample nucleotide sequence into the wells seeded with the primers, and initiating LAMP reactions within the wells. The method includes observing the reaction differential between the primers and determining the status of the DNA with regard to that particular SNP. A second method includes providing the primers with tags in a mixture, adding the sample nucleotide sequence to the mixture, and initiating LAMP reactions. The method includes providing a different visual indication when the wild-type primer reacts with the sample nucleotide sequence versus when the SNP primer reacts with the sample nucleotide sequence, and determining the status of the DNA with regard to that particular SNP.
