Research Progress on the Application of Gene Editing Technologies in the Detection of Foodborne Microorganisms
Foodborne microbial contamination poses a serious threat to human health,and traditional detection methods such as culture methods,biochemical detection methods,immunological detection methods,and molecular biological detection methods have certain limitations.In recent years,with the rapid development of gene editing technology,new opportunities have emerged for the detection of foodborne microorganisms.Compared with traditional methods,gene editing technology has advantages in sensitivity,specificity,and detection speed,capable of detecting low copy number target nucleic acids,accurately identifying target microorganisms,and being time-efficient.This article mainly reviews the traditional detection methods for foodborne microorganisms,new gene editing technologies,and their application prospects.
