RESUMO
Objective:To establish a specific and sensitive method using loop-mediated isothermal amplification for rapid screening of Salmonella. Methods:The invA gene sequence of Salmonella was downloaded from GenBank. After homology comparison with DNAMAN software， amplification primers were designed in the conserved region， and a LAMP-LFD detection method was established. The reaction system was optimized， and the specificity and sensitivity of the method were verified. Results:The sensitivity of this method to detect Salmonella DNA was up to 1.0×101 copies/μL. The positive rate of anal swabs was the same as that of fluorescent PCR. Meanwhile， LAMP-LFD was easy to operate and did not need expensive instruments. The detection result could be obtained within 30 minutes. Conclusion:The LAMP-LFD method established in this study is rapid， simple， sensitive and specific， which is suitable for rapid screening of Salmonella.
