Zusammenfassung:Methods for detecting an analyte in a sample are disclosed. The method can include depositing the sample in an instrument, such as a Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) instrument that is configured to selectively amplify an analyte, such as a characteristic portion of a genome of a pathogen. A moving average of the quantity of the analyte at an instance of time can be compared to a sum of (1) the moving average for a previous instance of time and (2) a multiple of the moving standard deviation at the previous instance of time. If the quantity of the analyte at the instance of time is greater than the sum of (1) the moving average for a previous instance of time and (2) a multiple of the moving standard deviation at the previous instance of time, it can be an indication that the sample is positive for the analyte.
