You'll learn how to:
- Compare recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) with PCR and LAMP, from how it works to when it's the right fit
- Apply RPA across infectious disease, food safety, environmental monitoring, and point-of-care testing
- Design RPA and RT-RPA assays, from primers to detection format
- Pair RPA with CRISPR detection (Cas12 or Cas13) when your assay needs single-nucleotide specificity
Recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) is a rapid, isothermal amplification technology that enables nucleic acid detection at a constant, relatively low temperature without the thermal cycling required for PCR. This makes RPA an attractive option for researchers and assay developers looking to build faster, more accessible molecular detection workflows for applications ranging from infectious disease and food safety to point-of-care and field testing.
