Abstract
The authentication of dairy species has great significance for food safety. This study focused on a more rapid method for identifying major dairy species, and specific recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA)-based assays for cattle, goat, sheep, camel and donkey were developed. Through the developed RPA-based assays, goats and sheep could be simultaneously identified and bovine families could be differentiated. The performances of the RPA assays were validated using 37 milk powder samples, of which 16.2% (6/37) were suspected of being adulterated and 24.3% (9/37) were potentially at risk of being wrongly identified as adulteration. The effectiveness of the developed assays for crude DNA detection was also validated by a rapid nucleic acid extraction kit, and results showed that the presence of large amounts of protein and fat did not affect the qualitative results. Therefore, these assays could combine with the rapid nucleic acids extraction methods for being used in field detection.

Abstract
In dairy industry, expensive yak's milk, camel's milk, and other specialty dairy products are often adulterated with low-cost cow's milk, goat's milk and so on. Currently, the detection of specialty dairy products typically requires laboratory settings and relies on skilled operators. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a multi-detection technology and on-site rapid detection technique to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of the detection of specialty dairy products. In this study, we introduced a fully integrated and portable microfluidic detection platform called Sector Self-Driving Microfluidics (SDM), designed to simultaneously detect eight common species-specific components in milk. SDM integrated nucleic acid extraction, purification, loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), and lateral flow strip (LFS) detection functions into a closed microfluidic system, enabling contamination-free visual detection. The SDM platform used a constant-temperature heating plate, powered by a mobile battery, eliminated the need for additional power support. The SDM platform achieved nucleic acid enrichment and transfer through magnetic force and liquid flow driven by capillary forces, operating without external pumps. The standalone SDM platform could detect dairy components with as low as 1% content within 1 h. Validation with 35 commercially available samples demonstrated 100% specificity and accuracy compared to the gold standard real-time PCR. The SDM platform provided the dairy industry with an efficient, convenient, and accurate detection tool, enabling rapid on-site testing at production facilities or sales points. This facilitated real-time monitoring of quality issues during the production process, quickly identifying potential risks and preventing substandard products from entering the market.

Abstract
Duck is often used in meat fraud as a substitute for more expensive meats. Rapid detection of duck ingredient in meat products is of great significance for combating meat fraud and safeguarding the interests of consumers. Therefore, we aim to develop duck-specific recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA)-based assays for the rapid detection of duck ingredient in animal-derived foods. Using Cytb gene as target, the real-time RPA and RPA combined with lateral flow strips (LFS RPA) were developed successfully for the rapid detection of ducks in 20 min at 39 °C and 40 °C, respectively. The assays did not show cross-reactions with 6 other livestock and poultry. The developed RPA assays could detect 10 pg duck genomic DNA per reaction and 0.1 % (w/w) duck ingredient in duck and mutton mixed powder within 30 min, including a rapid nucleic acid extraction. Furthermore, duck ingredient could be detected in 30 different actual foods including heat-processed meats and blood products. Therefore, duck-specific real-time RPA and LFS RPA assays were successfully developed with good specificity and sensitivity, which could enable rapid detection of duck ingredient in the field and provide technical support for combating the meat fraud.

Abstract
Avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J) causes oncogenic disease in chickens in China, resulting in great harm to poultry production, and remains widespread in China. Herein, we employed a cross-priming amplification (CPA) approach and a nucleic acid detection device to establish a visual rapid detection method for ALV-J. The sensitivity of CPA, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real-time PCR (RT-PCR) was compared, and the three methods were used to detect ALV-J in the cell cultures which inoculated with clinical plasma. The result showed when the amplification reaction was carried out at 60 °C for just 60 min, the sensitivity of CPA was 10 times higher than conventional PCR, with high specificity, which was comparable with RT-PCR, based on detection of 123 cell cultures which inoculated with clinical plasma, the coincidence rate with real-time PCR was 97.3% (71/73). CPA detection of ALV-J does not require an expensive PCR instrument; a simple water bath or incubator is sufficient for complete DNA amplification, and the closed nucleic acid detection device avoids aerosol pollution, making judgment of results more intuitive and objective. The CPA assay would be a promising simple, rapid and sensitive method for identification of ALV-J.

Abstract
African swine fever is a highly contagious global disease caused by the African swine fever virus. Since African swine fever (ASF) was introduced to Georgia in 2007, it has spread to many Eurasian countries at an extremely fast speed. It has recently spread to China and other major pig-producing countries in southeast Asia, threatening global pork production and food security. As there is no available vaccine at present, prevention and control must be carried out based on early detection and strict biosecurity measures. Early detection should be based on the rapid identification of the disease on the spot, followed by laboratory diagnosis, which is essential for disease control. In this review, we introduced the prevalence, transmission routes, eradication control strategies, and diagnostic methods of ASF. We reviewed the various methods of diagnosing ASF, focusing on their technical characteristics and clinical test results. Finally, we give some prospects for improving the diagnosis strategy in the future.

Abstract
Abstract
Adulteration of beef with cheap chicken has become a growing problem worldwide. In this study, a quick, single primer-triggered isothermal amplification (SAMP) combined with a fast nucleic acid extraction method was employed to detect the chicken meat in adulterated beef. Chicken from adulterated beef was identified using the chicken species-specific primer designed according to the Gallus gallus mitochondrial conserved sequences. Our SAMP method displayed good specificity and sensitivity in detecting chicken and beef meat DNA–the limit of detection (LOD) of SAMP is 0.33 pg/μL of chicken and beef total DNA and 2% w/w chicken meat in beef. The whole work flow from DNA extraction to signal detection can be finished within 1 h, fulfilling the requirement of on-site meat species identification.

Abstract
The authentication of animal species is an important issue due to an increasing trend of adulteration and mislabeling of animal species in processed meat products. Polymerase chain reaction is the most sensitive and specific technique for nucleic acid-based animal species detection. However, it is a time-consuming technique that requires costly thermocyclers and sophisticated labs. In recent times, there is a need of on-site detection by point-of-care (POC) testing methods and devices under low-resource settings. These POC devices must be affordable, sensitive, specific, user-friendly, rapid and robust, equipment free, and delivered to the end users. POC devices should also confirm the concept of micro total analysis system. This review discusses POC testing methods and devices that have been developed for meat species identification. Recent developments in lateral flow assay-based devices for the identification of animal species in meat products are also reviewed. Advancements in increasing the efficiency of lateral flow detection are also discussed.

Abstract
Simple Summary The adulteration and authenticity of meat and meat products has become a global social problem. Beef is often intentionally adulterated with cheap meat. In order to ensure the authenticity of meat, and provide technical support to regulatory authorities, we developed a rapid and visual method to detect duck ingredient in adulterated beef. This method is implemented recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) and multiplex lateral flow dipstick (MLFD) cascade. The whole RPA-MLFD reaction process can be finished within 35 min, and the results can be determined by naked eyes. RPA-MLFD was applied to simultaneously detect duck ingredient and beef ingredient without using additional instruments. An adulteration ratio as low as 5% of duck ingredient in beef can be easily measured. Moreover, we confirmed that our new method held good potential in the detection of commercially processed meat samples. Therefore, this study reports a useful animal derived meat adulteration detection method, which have potential application in future. Abstract Meat adulteration has become a global social problem. In order to protect consumers from meat adulteration, several methods have been developed to identify meat species. However, the conventional methods are labor-intensive, time-consuming and require instruments. In the present study, a rapid and visual method based on recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) and multiplex lateral flow dipstick (MLFD) was developed to detect duck ingredient in adulterated beef. Using recombinase and strand displacement polymerase enable RPA to amplify different double-labeled DNA amplicons at room temperature, which can be further detected by MLFD. The whole reaction process can be finished within 35 min, and the results can be determined by naked eyes. As low as 5% of duck ingredient in adulterated beef can be easily measured. Moreover, we confirmed that our new method held good potential in the detection of commercially processed meat samples. In conclusion, this study reported a useful animal derived meat adulteration detection method, which have potential application in future.

Abstract
Here, we reported on a label-free cross-priming amplification (CPA) scheme that utilized endonuclease restriction for simultaneous detection of nucleic acids and elimination of carryover contamination. Reaction mixtures were detected in a nanoparticle-based lateral flow biosensor (LFB). The assay exhibited attractive traits in that it did not require the use of labeled primers or labeled probes, and thus, the technique could prevent undesired results arising from unwanted hybridization between labeled primers or between a probe and labeled primer. Isothermal amplification and endonuclease restriction digestion were conducted in a single pot, and the use of a closed-tube amplification removed false-positive results due to contaminants. To validate the assay's applicability, we employed the novel technique to detect the pathogen Staphylococcus aureus in pure cultures and artificial blood samples. The assay could detect target bacterium in pure culture with a 100 fg.μL-1 detection limit, and in spiked blood samples with a 700 cfu.mL-1 detection limit. The whole process, including sample procedure (20-min), isothermal amplification (60-min), endonuclease digestion (10-min) and result reporting (within 2-min), could be finished within 95-min. As a poof-of-concept assay, the technique devised in the current report could be employed for detecting various other sequences if the specific CPA primers were available.

Abstract
We report a visualized quantitative detection method for nucleic acid amplification tests based on the coffee-ring effect on colloid-crystal substrates. The solution for loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) of DNA is drop cast on a colloid-crystal surface. After complete drying, a coffee ring containing the LAMP byproduct (i.e., magnesium pyrophosphate) is formed, and it is found that the width of the coffee ring is linearly correlated to the logarithm of the original DNA concentration before the isothermal amplification. Importantly, compared with other substrates, we found that the colloid-crystal substrate is an appropriate substrate for carrying out the assay of high sensitivity. On the basis of these findings, we develop a coffee-ring-based assay for quantitative readout of trace DNA in a sample. The assay requires 0.50 μL of the sample and is completed in 5 min in a homemade chamber with constant humidity. Semiquantitative detection of trace DNA is performed using naked eyes. With the use of a smartphone, the DNA in a sample can be quantitatively detected with a limit of detection of 20 copies.
