Molecular Analysis of Rabies Virus Using RNA Extracted from Used Lateral Flow Devices
Molecular analysis of rabies virus can provide accurate diagnosis and information on its genetic diversity. The transportation of rabies brain samples from remote areas to a central laboratory is challenging owing to biohazard risks and decomposability. We investigated the utility of used lateral flow devices (LFDs) for subsequent molecular analysis and assessed the necessary storage temperatures. Using RNA extracted from used LFD strips, we performed conventional reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) using an LN34 primer set to amplify short fragments (165 bp) for rabies virus detection and the P1-304 primer set to amplify long fragments of the entire N gene amplicon (1,506 bp) for phylogenetic analysis. Among 71 used LFDs stored in a refrigerator and 64 used LFDs stored at room temperature, the LN34 assay showed high sensitivities (96.2% and 100%, respectively) for the diagnosis of rabies, regardless of the storage temperature. A significant reduction in the sensitivity of rabies diagnosis was observed when using the P1-304 primer set for used LFDs stored at room temperature compared to those stored at refrigeration temperature (20.9% versus 100%; P < 0.05). Subsequent sequencing and phylogenetic analysis were successfully performed using the amplicons generated by the P1-304 RT-PCR assays. Used LFDs are thus promising resources for rabies virus RNA detection and sequence analysis. Virus detection via RT-PCR, amplifying a short fragment, was possible regardless of the storage temperature of the used LFDs. However, refrigerated storage is recommended for RT-PCR amplification of long fragments for phylogenetic analysis.
