Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) tests have been developedas molecular tests for neglected parasitic diseases such as leishmaniasisor sleeping sickness. A LAMP test for Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiologicalagent of Chagas Disease (ChD), would allow a rapid and reliable diagnosis,in particular in cases of acute and congenital ChD (CChD). We evaluatedthe performance a Trypanosoma cruzi LAMP kit using purified DNA, spikedblood and clinical specimens. Quantitative PCR (qPCR) was used as areference. Different extraction methods for LAMP were also evaluated. TheLAMP reaction was performed at 62.5°C for 45 min. Analytical sensitivitywas measured in ten-fold dilutions of CL Brener (TcVI) and Silvio X10(TcI) DNA. Analytical specificity was...
