Abstract:
Food safety issues impact individual physical health and regional economic development. Efficient and convenient detection methods are key to achieving relevant risk assessment and safety regulation. Traditional detection techniques are cumbersome and time-consuming, and fail to meet the market demand for rapid detection. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a promising candidate method for commercial applications in food safety inspection owing to its high speed, high sensitivity, strong specificity, and low cost. This study reviews the principle, classification, and product detection methods of LAMP, with a focus on analyzing the application of colorimetry in LAMP, and summarizes progress made in food safety inspection in the past five years, aiming to provide a reference for developing fast, on-site, lowcost methods for food safety inspection.
