LAMP TechnologyLoop-mediated isothermal amplification
The LAMP method is a simple and rapid isothermal amplification method using Bst DNA polymerase with strand displacement DNA synthesis function. Two pairs of specific primers are used to form a loop and amplify continuously.

Each primer site is designated as forward
5'- (F3, F2, F1, B1c, B2c, B3c) -3`, Revers 3`- (F3c, F2c, F1c, B1.

sequence listing F1c complementary to F1, B1c complementarym
to B1 binds to form loop-shaped DNA. - Fig.8

Then, DNA amplify sequentially by combining loop formed DNA
as designed primers F3, FIP (F1c + F2), B3 and BIP.
