Abstract
Meat adulteration has attracted more and more attention from consumers. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a method that can be used to detect meat adulteration on the spot, quickly and without any instruments. Therefore, in this study, seaweed cellulose and β-CD were used as raw material to prepare aerogel materials capable of adsorbing aerosols, which were used in LAMP and qLAMP detection. LAMP and qLAMP detection were performed with pork-specific primers, the results showed that this material could effectively avoid the problem of false positives. Amplification occurred only with the pork DNA template, and the other four kinds of meat were not amplified. The LAMP and qLAMP assays were performed with different concentrations of the pork DNA template (100 ng/μL-1 fg/μL) to determine its sensitivity, and the results showed that 1 fg/μL of pork could be detected. By testing the experimental adulteration model prepared by mixing different proportions of pork (0.1%–20%) with beef and goat meat, the detection limit of the two methods was determined to be 0.1% pork. The aerogel material prepared in this study effectively prevent the contamination of aerosol in LAMP and qLAMP, ensuring the result accuracy. Based on this material, the detection sensitivity of LAMP and qLAMP is high, with a low detection limit, which has significant application potential in the field of meat adulteration detection.
