LAMP florescence dye detection (open tubes). Tube no. 1: W. bancrofti DNA-positive control; 2: negative control; 3, 4, 5, and 6: positive specimens; 7 and 8: negative specimens. Green color indicates that Wuchereria bancrofti DNA was present and was amplified (positive). Orange color means that there was no W. bancrofti DNA and hence no amplification that took place (negative).
