TrueLAMP™
The only LAMP kit that prevents nonspecific amplification and false positives
TrueLAMP™
Suppresses primer-driven nonspecific amplification — so your no-template controls stay negative.
A proprietary inhibitor formulated with the polymerase blocks template-free amplification while preserving your true target. No differential time-to-threshold (DTT) analysis needed.

THE FALSE POSITIVE PROBLEM
Are you frustrated by false positives in your LAMP assays?
With TrueLAMP™, you can finally trust your LAMP assay results — no amplification in no-template control (NTC), no spurious signal, no wasted runs.
With conventional LAMP
Nonspecific primer amplification turns negatives yellow — and the troubleshooting begins.
❌ Getting amplification in no-template controls (NTCs)
❌ Replacing LAMP reagents trying to find “contamination”
❌ Running LAMP assays in separate rooms
❌ Redesigning LAMP primers again and again
With TrueLAMP™
A proprietary inhibitor blocks nonspecific primer amplification, so only your true target amplifies.
✅ Infectious, inherited diseases, and cancers
✅ Pathogens in crops and food products
✅ Harmful microorganisms in the environment
✅ Pathogens in livestock and pets
HOW IT WORKS
Three steps from sample to a clear answer
1. MIX
Add 1 µL sample (DNA/RNA, or water-suspended cells, bacteria or virions — no extraction needed) to 9 µL master mix (with your LAMP primers) — a 10 µL reaction.
2. Incubate
60 °C for 10 min, then 65 °C for 30–80 min — digital oven, submerged water bath, smart mug or heated-lid thermocycler.
3. Read
Read by eye or quantify photos with a smartphone colorimeter app. Readout:
Red = Negative, Yellow = Positive
