Polymerase chain reaction(PCR), as a promising tool for Salmonella detection, is facing a lack of simple and fast sensing methods that are compatible with field applications in resource-limited areas. In this work, we developed a sensing approach to identify PCR-amplified Salmonella genomic DNA with the naked eye in a snapshot. Based on the ratiometric fiuorescence signals from SYBR Green Ⅰ and Hydroxyl naphthol blue, positive samples stood out from negative ones with a distinct color pattern under UV exposure. The proposed sensing scheme enabled highly specific identification of Salmonella with a detection limit at the single-copy level. Also, as a supplement to the intuitive naked-eye visualization results, numerical analysis of the colored images was available with a smartphone app to extract RGB values from colored images. This work provides a simple, rapid, and user-friendly solution for PCR identification, which promises great potential in molecular diagnosis of Salmonella and other pathogens in field.展开更多
