Background:

Rodentibacter pneumotropicus and Rodentibacter heylii are important exclusion pathogens in specific pathogen-free (SPF) laboratory animals. However, routine detection methods such as traditional bacterial culture remain labor-intensive and time-consuming. The loop-mediated isothermal amplification-lateral flow dipstick (LAMP-LFD) assay provides a self-contained format for nucleic acid testing that combines speed, sensitivity, and specificity while minimizing aerosol contamination, making it well-suited for point-of-need applications.

Objectives:

This study aimed to develop a streamlined, on-site detection platform capable of rapidly identifying both pathogens with high analytical accuracy, operational simplicity, and suitability for routine laboratory surveillance.

Methods:

A LAMP-LFD system was established for the detection of the two pathogens using primers designed against the conserved 16S-23S rRNA ITS region. The assay's specificity, sensitivity, repeatability, and limit of detection (LoD) were evaluated.

Results:

The assay achieved detection limits of 1 × 10−4 ng/μL for R. pneumotropicus and 1 × 10−5 ng/μL for R. heylii, demonstrating significantly higher sensitivity than PCR. No cross-reactivity was observed with 15 non-target bacteria. Among 28 infected samples, the method detected 19 positives, compared with 21 by multiplex PCR and 23 by qPCR. In 842 laboratory animal samples, culture-based, qPCR, and LAMP-LFD detected 2, 41, and 37 positive samples, respectively. The LoDs were 102 and 101 CFU/mL in fecal samples and 101 and 100 CFU/mL in throat swab samples for R. pneumotropicus and R. heylii, respectively.

Conclusions:

This method provides an approach for monitoring the health status of laboratory mice by enabling the detection of these two target pathogens.
