Abstract:
We developed a portable and easy-to-use nucleic acid amplification test (NAT) system for use in point-of-care testing (POCT). The system shows sensitivity that is sufficiently higher than that of the currently available rapid diagnostic kit and is comparable to that of real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for influenza testing.
