Abstract
Salmo salar is one of the most popular salmon species due to its meaty texture and quality protein. Oncorhynchus mykiss, which has a muscle texture similar to that of Salmo salar and is less expensive, is often used as a substitute for Salmo salar. As Salmo salar and Oncorhynchus mykiss belong to the same subfamily of Salmonidae, traditional methods are ineffective in the specific detection of the two. In this study, we combined hue-change with CRISPR/Cas12a lateral flow assay to detect the Salmo salar adulteration. This method detected S. salar genomic DNA at a vLOD of 5 copies, and was able to accurately identify adulterated samples containing 5 % w/w Salmo salar within one hour. In addition, the detection of Salmo salar in processed food products was achieved with the naked-eye at a concentration range of 0 % ∼ 70 % w/w, and the detection accuracy is between 93.3 % ∼ 100 %.
