Title: Identification of the authenticity of Angelica sinensis based on ladder-type melting temperature isothermal amplification (LMTIA) technology

Abstract:

Angelica sinensis is a traditional medicinal and edible plant in China, known as the "Nine Returns in Ten Directions" since ancient times. Due to its high price and the abundance of similar plants, adulteration and adulteration of Angelica sinensis often occur. Therefore, it is urgent to establish reliable detection and identification methods. This study introduces the ladder-type melting temperature isothermal amplification (LMTIA) technology independently developed by the team for the detection and identification of Angelica sinensis. A system for identifying Angelica sinensis and Angelica acutiloba based on LMTIA technology is established for the detection of Angelica sinensis components in food and traditional Chinese medicine. On the basis of establishing LMTIA technology detection methods for Angelica sinensis and Angelica acutiloba, a dual LMTIA technology detection method for Angelica sinensis and Angelica acutiloba DNA was established (this method has been applied for and granted an invention patent). Use Proofman probes to label two different fluorescent groups, with Angelica sinensis labeled as FAM fluorescent group and Angelica acutiloba labeled as JOE fluorescent group. Add two Proofman probes and primers to the same reaction system to establish a dual Proofman LMTIA detection method for Angelica sinensis and Angelica acutiloba. By optimizing the reaction temperature, sensitivity, stability, and specificity are tested. The results showed that the established dual Proofman LMTIA detection method for Angelica sinensis and Angelica acutiloba was most suitable for a reaction temperature of 62 ℃, with a sensitivity of 10 pg/μ L for Angelica sinensis and 1 pg/μ L for Angelica acutiloba. The stability of the dual detection was good, and there was no cross reaction between Angelica sinensis and Angelica acutiloba. Nucleic acid amplification was completed within 20 minutes. Seven samples of Angelica sinensis were tested using the established method, and the results showed that they were all true Angelica sinensis. The above research indicates that LMTIA technology has the characteristics of strong specificity, high sensitivity, and short detection time, and can be used for the detection and identification of Angelica sinensis and other substances.
