A ladder-shape melting temperature isothermal amplification (LMTIA) assay was established and used to detect soybean components in edible oils. LMTIA primers were designed with the sequence of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) gene as the target, the reaction temperatures were optimized, the sensitivity was determined, and the suitability of the DNA extraction method for edible oil was assessed, with HO and genomic DNA (gDNA) from corn, rapeseed, cottonseed, sesame, chili, chicken, pork, beef, and mutton as negative controls to test the false positives of the LMTIA assay. The established LMTIA assay gave a sensitivity of 1 pg at an optimal temperature of 57 °C.
