Primer Design Software

A software application used to design efficient primers for Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) assays. LAMP Designer calls up gene sequences from online sources such as GenBank directly into the program. The application can perform a BLAST search to avoid cross homologies in the design of the primers. It also supports local and desktop BLAST options for using custom and unpublished databases. LAMP Designer includes a sequence view with primers marked on the sequence and it calculates a melting temperature, Tm. The software also exports a publication quality report for the designed assays to be passed on to colleagues. The data is organized in project format and a local database of sequence information and search results is maintained.
