“…LAMP can amplify nucleic acids with high specificity, sensitivity and rapidity under isothermal conditions by using a DNA polymerase with strand displacement activity. LAMP products can be visualized with the naked eye by adding fluorescent DNA‐intercalating dyes such as ethidium bromide (Pham, Nakajima, Ohashi, & Onuma, ), SYBR® Green I (Notomi et al, ), propidium iodide (Hill et al, ), Quant‐iT™ PicoGreen® (Tomlinson, Barker, & Boonham, ) or GeneFinder™ (Almasi, Ojaghkandi, Hemmatabadi, Hamidi, & Aghaei, ), by adding metal ion indicators such as hydroxynaphthol blue (HNB) (Goto, Honda, Ogura, Nomoto, & Hanaki, ), CuSO 4 (Zhang et al, ), calcein (Tomita, Mori, Kanda, & Notomi, ) or pH indicators such as cresol red (Tanner, Zhang, & Evans, ). The reactions can be monitored using real‐time fluorescence measurements or a turbidity measuring system.…”
