The disclosure relates generally to molecular diagnostic devices configured to amplifying a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) locus and discriminate between two or more allelic variants of the SNP, indicating presence or absence of a target allele. In some embodiments, the molecular diagnostic devices are capable of detecting, at point-of-care, SNPs associated with resistance or susceptibility to antibiotic treatment of organism infections. In other aspects, the disclosure provides methods of treatment for disease or disorders (e.g. organism infections) where treatment is guided by presence or absence of an allele at a SNP locus as determined by such molecular diagnostic devices.
A method of detecting the presence of a target organism and the presence of at least one of a first target allele within the target organism associated with resistance to a treatment or a second target allele within the target organism associated with susceptibility to the treatment using a molecular diagnostic test device, the method comprising:
The method of 17, wherein the digital read module determines the presence of at least one of the second color or the third color based on at least one of a ratio of the third attenuation to the second attenuation or a difference between the third attenuation and the second attenuation.
A method of detecting the presence of a target organism and the presence of at least one of a first target allele within the target organism associated with resistance to a treatment or a second target allele within the target organism associated with susceptibility to the treatment using a molecular diagnostic test device, the method comprising:
