Development of a rapid detection method for Photobacterium spp. using Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP)

摘要

While the abundance of photobacteria has previously been exclusively associated with marine environments and spoilage of seafood, several recent studies have demonstrated their status as pervasive constituents of the microbiota on packaged meats. Since their ubiquitous nature has been revealed, detection of their presence on meat, their entry route into meat processing environments and prevention of their growth is a novel emerging challenge for the food industry.
