Abstract

and are significant and prevalent pathogens associated with bovine mastitis on dairy farms worldwide, resulting in severe infections in both dairy cows and, subsequently, human beings. Fast and dependable pathogen diagnostics are essential to minimize the effects of cow mastitis and human infections. The aim of this research was to develop a duplex recombinase-aided amplification (RAA) combined with the lateral flow dipstick (LFD) method, which was used for rapid, simultaneous detection of and . The SKII culture medium for and cocultivation was developed in this study. By optimizing the duplex RAA-LFD reaction conditions in terms of primer concentration, amplification temperature, and reaction time, the duplex RAA-LFD assay could successfully detect and when the reaction was conducted at 39 °C for 20 min. The duplex RAA-LFD method demonstrated good specificity, exhibiting no cross-reactivity with other pathogens. In addition, the detection limit of the duplex RAA-LFD for and was 60 fg of genomic DNA and 1.78 × 10 and 2.46 × 10 CFU/mL of bacteria in pure culture. Moreover, the duplex RAA-LFD technique is capable of identifying and in artificially spiked milk samples even at very low initial concentrations of 1.78 × 10 and 2.46 × 10 CFU/mL, respectively, after 6 h of enrichment. The result of the actual samples showed that the total concordance rate of the duplex RAA-LFD method with the biochemical identification method and PCR method could reach 92.98~98.25% with high consistency. The results of this study indicated that the duplex RAA-LFD assay, which is a precise, sensitive, and simple field testing technique, can be used to identify and and is expected to be used for disease diagnosis.
