Experimental study on the detection of Gastrodia elata by enzymatic recombinase amplification and immunochromatography.

Objective: The objective of this research is to develop two methodologies, Enzymatic recombinase amplification (ERA) and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) coupled with Lateral Flow Dipstick (LFD), for the swift authentication of Gastrodia elata.

Methodology: Primers and nfo probes for the ERA of Gastrodia elata were developed based on the ITS2 genome sequences of Gastrodia elata and its counterfeits. Specific primers for the PCR analysis of Gastrodia elata were generated using the NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information) online platform.

An experimental study on the visual identification of Fritillaria ussuriensis based on LAMP and nucleic acid colloidal gold technique.

Fritillaria ussuriensis Maxim is one of the traditional Chinese valuable herbs, which is the dried bulb of Fritillaria, a plant of the lily family. The identification of authenticity about F. ussuriensis is still technically challenging.
