Objective: To establish a rapid detection method for Salmonella using recombinase-mediated nucleic acid amplification (Recombinase-Aided Amplification, RAA). Methods: Primers and probes were designed based on the invA gene of Salmonella. The sensitivity of the RAA method was evaluated by constructing a plasmid containing the target gene fragment. The specificity of the method was verified by testing Escherichia coli and Shigella, and the method was further validated using positive Salmonella samples. Results: The established method operates at 39°C and can complete the detection within 20 minutes. Its detection limit is 10² copies/μl. No cross-reactivity was observed with Escherichia coli or Shigella, demonstrating excellent specificity. Conclusion: The developed RAA detection method exhibits characteristics of rapidity, high sensitivity, specificity, and ease of operation, making it suitable for the rapid detection of Salmonella.
