Fig. 1. Schematic illustration of the different principles of allele-specific isothermal loop amplification (AS-LAMP): allele-specific primer FIP (А), allele-specific primer F3 (Б)
Fig. 2. Fluorescence accumulation curves for AS-LAMP products. Curves marked by circles correspond to FIP-AS-LAMP, marked by crosses — to F3-AS-LAMP
Fig. 3. Detection of TCG/TTG (S450L) mutation of the rpoB gene by AS-LAMP method with visualization of amplification products by adding the SYBR Green I intercalating dye in natural light (А) and with the 280 nm UV illumination (B). Samples 1, 4, 5 contain а mutation, 2 and 3 — contain no mutation, they were amplified with mutation-specific primer, tubes marked with «К» were amplified with norm-specific primer
