Identification methods of collagens and gelatins have been studied many years due to religious and food safety issues. Some researchers detected the collagen while others took up their study based on DNA at the first time. In this work, we used a closed-tube loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technique to differentiate collagen and gelatin samples. DNA was extracted by DNeasy mericon Food Kit and was dissolved in 30 µl elution buffer, optimum concentration of Mg2+, deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates(dNTPs), betaine in LAMP reaction is 6.0 mmol/L, 2.0 mmol/L, and 0.8 mmol/L, respectively. After LAMP reaction, samples being detected changed their initial color to green, others’ were colorless or brown slightly. The research offered a simple, fast detection technique to differentiate collagen and gelatin samples derived from porcine, bovine and channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) , the collagens’ species can be determined by color variation in reaction tubes within two hour.
