Objective To develop a specific and rapid method for detection of Bifidobacterium spp. by loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). Methods Specific DNA fraction of 16S rDNA gene of Bifidobacterium spp. was targeted for primer design of LAMP. Bifidobacterium spp. was confirmed by the changes of color or turbidity of reactions specifically. Results Five strains of Bifidobacterium spp. and 19 strains of non-Bifidobacterium spp. were tested respectively in 60 min. The specificity and exclusivity of the method were 100%. The detection limit of DNA from Bifidobacterium spp. was 16.1±8.2 pg/μL, and the detection limit of thallus from Bifidobacterium spp. was 0.1 CFU/mL. Conclusion As a complementary method of national standard, the LAMP can be used to test Bifidobacterium spp. in foods, health foods and pharmaceutical products.
