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.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":319,"journal":{"name":"Food Control","volume":"172 ","pages":"Article 111205"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143388125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Climate change impacts include increased ambient temperatures, rainfall, and humidity, and more frequent extreme weather events. These are likely to impact the risks associated with warmer-season foodborne diseases like campylobacteriosis. A literature review was conducted to identify the chicken related <em>Campylobacter</em> risk factors from farm to fork. Expert opinion was gathered using a modified Delphi survey in two rounds: 1) to identify risk factors whose likelihood of occurring would be impacted by climate change, 2) to determine the likelihood of the proposed change and the impact on campylobacteriosis from chicken meat consumption. Likert scores were used to calculate a mean risk level value. The latter was used together with a respondent agreement cut-off of over 66% to highlight risk factors most likely to change and to impact the risk of campylobacteriosis from chicken meat under climate change. Increasing temperatures and humidity and the extension of summer and early autumn seasons had the overall highest Mean Risk Level value (19/25). The increased prevalence of pests, especially flies had the second highest (16/25), and the highest respondent agreement level (94%).
