Molecular diagnostic (MDx) methods directly detect target nucleic acid sequences and are therefore an important approach for precise diagnosis of pathogen infection. In comparison with traditional MDx techniques such as PCR, the recently developed CRISPR-based diagnostic technologies, which employ the single-stranded nucleic acid
