The LMTIA reaction system was optimized, and the performance of the LMTIA assay in specificity, sensitivity and detection limit (LOD) was determined. Our results showed that the LMTIA assay was able to specifically detect 10 ng genomic DNA (gDNAs) of Sus scrofa, the sensitivity of the LMTIA assay was 1 ng genomic DNA of Sus scrofa, and the LMTIA assay was able to detect the pork adulterated in beef with 0.1% LOD, which was the same as that of reported PCR assay or LAMP assay. This study holds a promise for facilitating the surveillance of the commercial adulteration of pork in beef.","PeriodicalId":49084,"journal":{"name":"Cyta-Journal of Food","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2022-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46982049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A characteristic electrophoretic pattern was obtained for kafirins, including fractions α1, α2, β and γ. The WS protein was used to prepare resins with lactic acid (LA) as a plasticizing agent, showing similar extensibility to zein (11.37 vs. 11.89 mm respectively) but below wheat gluten (42.61 mm). The microstructure of kafirin resins showed air encapsulation and alignment as fibers.

Incubation of RBP with the increasing concentration of three oxidants resulted in a gradual generation of protein carbonyl derivatives. It can be deduced from the Raman spectra that a low concentration of AAPH and acrolein both decreased the percentage of α-helix and β-sheet, which increased with MDA concentration. The Raman intensities of tryptophan residues of oxidized RBP by AAPH and acrolein, both initially increased and then decreased with oxidation concentration. After MDA treatment, the Raman intensities corresponding to Trp residues and Tyr doublet ratio of RBP were increased and then decreased, and decreased and then increased with oxidation concentration, respectively.
