Heat-Treated Meat Origin Tracing and Authenticity through a Practical Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction Approach. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14224727. [PMID: 36432413 PMCID: PMC9693382 DOI: 10.3390/nu14224727] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Revised: 10/29/2022] [Accepted: 11/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Meat adulteration have become a global issue, which has increasingly raised concerns due to not only economic losses and religious issues, but also public safety and its negative effects on human health. Using optimal primers for seven target species, a multiplex PCR method was developed for the molecular authentication of camel, cattle, dog, pig, chicken, sheep and duck in one tube reaction. Species-specific amplification from the premixed total DNA of seven species was corroborated by DNA sequencing. The limit of detection (LOD) is as low as 0.025 ng DNA for the simultaneous identification of seven species in both raw and heat-processed meat or target meat: as little as 0.1% (w/w) of the total meat weight. This method is strongly reproducible even while exposed to intensively heat-processed meat and meat mixtures, which renders it able to trace meat origins in real-world foodstuffs based on the authenticity assessment of commercial meat samples. Therefore, this method is a powerful tool for the inspection of meat adulterants and has broad application prospects.

Development of a multiplex PCR assay for the simultaneous detection of big blue octopus ( Octopus cyanea), giant Pacific octopus ( Enteroctopus dofleini), and common octopus ( Octopus vulgaris). Food Sci Biotechnol 2022; 31:497-504. [PMID: 35464245 PMCID: PMC8994793 DOI: 10.1007/s10068-022-01051-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2021] [Revised: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Since octopuses are similar in appearance and can be processed into various forms, seafood fraud has been reported. In this study, we developed the PCR assay to simultaneously detect three octopuses (big blue octopus, giant Pacific octopus, and common octopus). Specific primer sets were designed based on COI gene. We observed that the specific PCR amplicon sizes were 84 bp for big blue octopus, 117 bp for giant Pacific octopus, and 166 bp for common octopus, respectively. This assay was then used to test for specificity and did not show cross-reactivity with 15 cephalopods families. The limit of detection of the multiplex PCR assay was 0.1 pg. Subsequently, 30 commercial food products were then monitored to evaluate the applicability of this assay. All products were specifically amplified, and three octopus species of interest were distinguished. Therefore, this assay can be used as an octopus authentication tool in the seafood industry.

Fraud in Animal Origin Food Products: Advances in Emerging Spectroscopic Detection Methods over the Past Five Years. Foods 2020; 9:E1069. [PMID: 32781687 PMCID: PMC7466239 DOI: 10.3390/foods9081069] [Citation(s) in RCA: 64] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2020] [Revised: 07/29/2020] [Accepted: 08/01/2020] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Animal origin food products, including fish and seafood, meat and poultry, milk and dairy foods, and other related products play significant roles in human nutrition. However, fraud in this food sector frequently occurs, leading to negative economic impacts on consumers and potential risks to public health and the environment. Therefore, the development of analytical techniques that can rapidly detect fraud and verify the authenticity of such products is of paramount importance. Traditionally, a wide variety of targeted approaches, such as chemical, chromatographic, molecular, and protein-based techniques, among others, have been frequently used to identify animal species, production methods, provenance, and processing of food products. Although these conventional methods are accurate and reliable, they are destructive, time-consuming, and can only be employed at the laboratory scale. On the contrary, alternative methods based mainly on spectroscopy have emerged in recent years as invaluable tools to overcome most of the limitations associated with traditional measurements. The number of scientific studies reporting on various authenticity issues investigated by vibrational spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, and fluorescence spectroscopy has increased substantially over the past few years, indicating the tremendous potential of these techniques in the fight against food fraud. It is the aim of the present manuscript to review the state-of-the-art research advances since 2015 regarding the use of analytical methods applied to detect fraud in food products of animal origin, with particular attention paid to spectroscopic measurements coupled with chemometric analysis. The opportunities and challenges surrounding the use of spectroscopic techniques and possible future directions will also be discussed.

Species Identification of Red Deer ( Cervus elaphus), Roe Deer ( Capreolus capreolus), and Water Deer ( Hydropotes inermis) Using Capillary Electrophoresis-Based Multiplex PCR. Foods 2020; 9:foods9080982.

Abstract
To provide consumers correct information on meat species, specific and sensitive detection methods are needed. Thus, we developed a capillary electrophoresis-based multiplex PCR assay to simultaneously detect red deer (Cervus elaphus), roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), and water deer (Hydropotes inermis). Specific primer sets for these three species were newly designed. Each primer set only amplified target species without any reactivity against non-target species. To identify multiple targets in a single reaction, multiplex PCR was optimized and combined with capillary electrophoresis to increase resolution and accuracy for the detection of multiple targets. The detection levels of this assay were 0.1 pg for red deer and roe deer and 1 pg for water deer. In addition, its applicability was demonstrated using various concentrations of meat DNA mixtures. Consequently, as low as 0.1% of the target species was detectable using the developed method. This capillary electrophoresis-based multiplex PCR assay for simultaneous detection of three types of deer meat could authenticate deer species labeled on products, thus protecting consumers from meat adulteration.

Abstract
Meat adulteration, mainly for the purpose of economic pursuit, is widespread and leads to serious public health risks, religious violations, and moral loss. Rapid, effective, accurate, and reliable detection technologies are keys to effectively supervising meat adulteration. Considering the importance and rapid advances in meat adulteration detection technologies, a comprehensive review to summarize the recent progress in this area and to suggest directions for future progress is beneficial. In this review, destructive meat adulteration technologies based on DNA, protein, and metabolite analyses and nondestructive technologies based on spectroscopy were comparatively analyzed. The advantages and disadvantages, application situations of these technologies were discussed. In the future, determining suitable indicators or markers is particularly important for destructive methods. To improve sensitivity and save time, new interdisciplinary technologies, such as biochips and biosensors, are promising for application in the future. For nondestructive techniques, convenient and effective chemometric models are crucial, and the development of portable devices based on these technologies for onsite monitoring is a future trend. Moreover, omics technologies, especially proteomics, are important methods in laboratory detection because they enable multispecies detection and unknown target screening by using mass spectrometry databases.
