Trench fever, caused by <i>Bartonella quintana</i>, is recognized as a re-emerging and neglected disease. Rapid and sensitive detection approaches are urgently required to monitor and help control <i>B. quintana</i> infections. Here, loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), which amplifies target DNA at a fixed temperature with high sensitivity, specificity and rapidity, was employed to detect <i>B. quintana</i>. Thirty-six strains, including 10 <i>B. quintana</i>, 13 other <i>Bartonella</ ...[more]
