Pythium insidiosum causes a life-threatening condition called pythiosis. High morbidity and mortality of pythiosis are consequences of delayed diagnosis. We aimed to develop a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for the rapid detection of P. insidiosum for use in remote areas, where pythiosis is prevalent.
