The Application of Loop-mediated Isothermal Amplification Technology in Food Detection

Loop mediated isothermal amplification technology is a kind of new technology in nucleic acid amplification. It is widely used in biological specific nucleic acid detection. This technology has been playing an increasingly important role in food detection. Introduces the basic principle of loop mediated isothermal amplification technology, and reviews the application of the technology in the detection of food borne pathogens and genetically modified food detection.
