Respiratory viruses have long been a major cause of a global pandemic, emphasizing the urgent need for high-sensitivity diagnostic tools. Typical PCR technology can only determine the type of virus in the sample, which is unable to detect different variants of the same virus without costly and time-consuming gene sequencing. Here, we introduce a simple, fully enclosed, and highly integrated microfluidic system based on CRISPR/Cas12a and isothermal amplification techniques (LOC-CRISPR) that can specifically identify multiple common respiratory viruses and their variants. The LOC-CRISPR chip integrates viral nucleic acid extraction, recombinant polymerase amplification, and CRISPR/Cas12a cleavage reaction-based detection, contamination-free detection. In addition, the LOC-CRISPR chip was designed for multiplexed detection (two-sample input and ten-result outputs), which can not only detect the presence of SARS-CoV-2, HN, HN, IVB and HRSV but also differentiate the BA.1, BA.2, and BA.5 variants of SARS-COV-2. For clinical validation, the LOC-CRISPR chip was used to analyze 50 nasopharyngeal swab samples (44 positive and 6 negative) and achieved excellent sensitivity (97.8%) and specificity (100%). This innovative LOC-CRISPR system has the ability to quickly, sensitively, and accurately detect multiple target nucleic acid sequences with single-base mutations, which will further improve the rapid identification and traceability of respiratory viruses infectious diseases.
