Estimating the term…
Provided is a diagnostic kit for determining infection with Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in a specimen, and a method for determining the infection with MRSA using the diagnostic kit is performed by visually observing a color change after LAMP reaction, and the color change is caused by a change in a magnesium concentration and confirmed using a specific dye compound which sensitively reacts with magnesium ions. The amplification of the MRSA DNA is performed using the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), so that the diagnostic kit has advantages of being conveniently used anytime and anywhere and quickly diagnosing.
A kit for diagnosing an infection caused by Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) through a change in a concentration of magnesium ions, the kit comprising:
A method for diagnosing an infection caused by Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) through loop-mediate isothermal amplification (LAMP) using at least one of compounds represented by the following Chemical Formulas 3, 4, 7, and 9, wherein each of the compounds represented by Chemical Formulas 3, 4, 7, and 9 forms a complex with magnesium in a LAMP reaction solution and color-developed wavelengths of the dye compounds represented by Chemical Formulas 3, 4, 7, and 9 are changed by a change in a magnesium concentration generated in the LAMP reaction process.
