CONCLUSIONS: RT-LAMP assay is rapid, sensitive, specific and cost effective method for detection of influenza A viruses than conventional one-step RT-PCR and it can serve as a good alternate for diagnosis and surveillance studies during influenza outbreaks in resource-limited setups of developing countries. The objectives of the current study were to (1) optimize RT-LAMP assay for detection of influenza A viruses and their subtypes (H1N1, H3N2 and pdm09/H1N1); (2) determine sensitivity and specificity of RT-LAMP assay; (3) clinical evaluation of RT-LAMP assay and conventional one-step RT-PCR in comparison to WHO recommended rRT-PCR taken as standard.
