Application of polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and lab‐on‐a‐chip capillary electrophoresis for the specific identification of game and domestic meats

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to adapt and improve previously published polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR‐RFLP) methods aimed at the identification of game and domestic meats, by replacing the gel electrophoretic steps for DNA fragment analysis by a chip‐based capillary electrophoresis system. RESULTS: PCR amplification of a mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene fragment and subsequent digestion of the amplicons with either MseI or a combination of MboII, BslI, and ApoI endonucleases generated characteristic PCR‐RFLP profiles that allowed discrimination among ten relevant game and domestic meat species. The Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer utilises capillary electrophoresis on a microchip device that is capable of rapidly sizing DNA fragments, offering a valuable recent development for the analysis of complex DNA banding patterns. CONCLUSION: Results obtained in this work indicated that banding resolution on the system was sensitive, with detection of some small DNA fragments that were not observed with the published conventional PCR‐RFLP gel‐based method. Therefore, the new faster and easy handling procedure provides an additional powerful tool that can be employed for meat speciation. Copyright © 2009 Society of Chemical Industry

Detection of pea in food by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

A qualitative 5′-nuclease real-time PCR-based method for the detection of pea (Pisum sativum) in food is described. The method consists of DNA isolation by chaotropic solid phase extraction and the subsequent PCR with pea-specific primers and a TaqMan fluorescent probe. The primers and the probe are oriented to the chloroplast DNA intron located between trnL and trnF exons encoding for tRNA. The analytical parameters of the method were inclusivity 100%, exclusivity 100% and the detection limit of 0.11±0.07 ng of pea DNA corresponding to 12±7 diploid pea genome copies. Using a set of model meat patés with defined pea contents, a matrix-related detection limit of 0.05% was determined and a linear calibration line was constructed. The presented analytical method was useful for qualitative detection or semiquantitative determination of pea in food products. The method was relatively fast because the analysis could be performed in one working day.     

Truncation of oligonucleotide primers confers specificity on real-time polymerase chain reaction assays for food authentication

The advent of real-time polymerase chain reaction has revolutionized the field of molecular biology, but the design and optimization of these assays has been largely overlooked in the literature. This dearth of information is probably in response to the provision of assay design software and robust guidelines issued by the leading manufacturer. However, many applications require highly specific assays with no cross-amplification of non-target DNA and it has been found that the software and guidelines, whilst producing assays of great sensitivity, do not necessarily produce specific assays. Two complementary strategies were used to confer specificity on a real-time assay, first by placing the 3' end of the primers on a point of sequence heterogeneity and, second, by truncating the primers at the 5' end to lower the calculated melting temperature. Using these strategies in concert, a specific assay for a conserved region of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene was developed that can be used for the unambiguous detection of the target species in a meat mixture. This approach can be used for any real-time polymerase chain reaction assay to increase assay selectivity and specificity.     

Analysis of Campylobacter spp. contamination in broilers from the farm to the final meat cuts by using restriction fragment length polymorphism of the polymerase chain reaction products

We investigated the genotype diversity and dynamics of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli in six commercial broiler farms during rearing and abattoir processing. In total, 223 C. jejuni and 36 C. coli strains isolated (on farm, transportation crates, carcasses after defeathering, and chicken wing meat at the end of the processing line) were subtyped by PCR-RFLP based on flagellin (fla typing) gene. Eleven (C. jejuni) and four (C. coli) different RFLP patterns were found. Multiple C. jejuni genotypes were identified in five out of six farms (except Farm 5). Furthermore, a clear tendency for dominance of particular genotypes was observed in almost all farms except Farm 3. Although diverse C. jejuni genotypes were isolated on the farms and transport crates, they were not detected in chicken wing cuts at the end of the processing line. We also observed varied distribution of types in different sampling stages both at the farm level and the processing environment. However, the interpretation of such fluctuations is precarious as new types occurred on some occasions, particularly during processing. Our results show that chicken wing meat contamination resulted mainly from farm strain carryover, and that the carcasses were probably contaminated during processing. In addition, the new strain types observed were isolated more frequently after defeathering as compared to other processing steps. Therefore, this stage, in addition to evisceration, is one of the critical control points in the processing line to prevent cross-contamination and for controlling the spread of campylobacters.     

Applicability of quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays for common bean authentication in processed food

Food authentication by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) methods assures food quality. The aim was to evaluate three qPCR assays for DNA quantification after heat processing of common bean grains, genus-specific FAS assay for Phaseolus, species-specific LEC assay for common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) and genetically modified (GM) event-specific FGM assay for Embrapa 5.1 event GM common bean. FAS assay showed high stability among Phaseolus genus samples. Common bean grains were heat-treated in autoclave (at 120 °C for 15–60 min) and target DNA copy number decreased as processing time increased. Even with DNA degradation, qPCR assays were capable to detect low DNA quantity, and the limit of detection was 100 copy number. Mean efficiency value of FGM assay was 92% in the presence of background DNA. Background DNA did not cause any interference, and 0.39% of GM material can be detected. These qPCR assays are able to quantify common bean in processed food.

Detection of horse DNA in food and feedstuffs using a polymerase chain reaction assay

BACKGROUND: Development of accurate methods for rapid identification of animal materials in food and feedstuffs is essential to protect consumers and also to enforce feed bans. The aim of this study was to develop a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for the specific detection of horse DNA in food and feedstuffs. RESULTS: The primers designed amplified a horse‐specific fragment of 114 bp of the mitochondrial 12S ribosomal RNA gene. The specificity of the primers was verified by PCR analysis of DNA from 32 non‐target species including mammals, birds, fish and plant species. The PCR assay developed allowed the detection of raw and heated horse tissues in muscle/oats mixtures even when the concentration of horse‐derived materials was reduced to 1 g kg^?1. CONCLUSION: The performance of the method was not affected by prolonged heat treatment (up to 133 °C for 20 min at 300 kPa), and consequently it could be very useful in verifying the origin of raw materials in food and feedstuffs submitted to denaturing technologies, for which other methods cannot be applied.

Molecular approaches for the detection of truffle species in processed food products

Molecular identification techniques were applied in order to analyse food products containing fragments of some Tuber species. Samples of fungal DNA were processed by analyses of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using truffle species‐specific primers, multiplex PCR, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis, sequencing of the ITS region and specific oligonucleotide probe hybridisation were used. The results obtained demonstrate the applicability of these molecular strategies to the identification of truffles, even when their morphological characteristics are difficult to interpret owing to the drastic treatments utilised in food preparation or the use of unripe fruit bodies (lacking spores). Furthermore, testing was also possible starting from very small amounts of sample and degraded DNA. The methods described have important applications in both the production and sale of such food products, in order to avoid fraud and reveal the possible presence of other fungal species. © 2002 Society of Chemical Industry

Detection of allergenic parvalbumin of Atlantic and Pacific herrings in fish products by PCR

The conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method to detect the major allergenic protein parvalbumin beta 2 of Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) and Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii) was developed. The specific set of primers for the amplification of the partial genomic sequence of the pvalb 2 gene encoding the main fish allergen of both herrings was designed and applied to the investigation of 24 commercial fish products. The targeted amplicon size was 189 bp of pvalb 2 gene of Atlantic herring and Pacific herring. As the internal amplification control, the DNA of 18S rRNA gene for eukaryotes (141 bp) was successfully used. The specificity of designed primer pair using 26 various fish species was assessed. The intrinsic detection limit was 10 pg µl^?1 of the present specific DNA. Atlantic herring or Pacific herring allergenic parvalbumins were detected in 22 investigated fish products in conformity with the package declaration. Two fish products were negative in spite of the declaration. The proposed PCR method is specific enough and can be used for the detection of Atlantic and Pacific herrings’ major allergen parvalbumin beta 2 in fish food products.     

Novel TaqMan real-time polymerase chain reaction assay for verifying the authenticity of meat and commercial meat products from game birds

Species-specific real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays using TaqMan probes have been developed for verifying the labeling of meat and commercial meat products from game birds, including quail, pheasant, partridge, guinea fowl, pigeon, Eurasian woodcock and song thrush. The method combines the use of species-specific primers and TaqMan probes that amplify small fragments (amplicons <150 base pairs) of the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene, and an endogenous control primer pair that amplifies a 141-bp fragment of the nuclear 18S rRNA gene from eukaryotic DNA. Analysis of experimental raw and heat-treated binary mixtures as well as of commercial meat products from the target species demonstrated the suitability of the assay for the detection of the target DNAs.

A novel real-time polymerase chain reaction method for the detection of pecan nuts in food

A real-time PCR-based method for the detection of the pecan (Carya illinoiensis) component in food is described. The method consists of DNA isolation by chaotropic solid phase extraction and the subsequent PCR with pecan-specific primers and a TaqMan fluorescent probe. The primers and the probe are targeted to the putative gene for allergenic vicilin-like seed storage protein of pecan. The method was positive for 10 pecan varieties and negative for all other tested plant materials used in food industry, including walnut. The intrinsic detection limit of the method was 1 pg pecan DNA which corresponds to 1.2 haploid genome copies. Using a series of model pastry samples with defined pecan contents, a practical detection limit of 0.01% (w/w) pecan was estimated. Practical applicability of the PCR method was tested by the analysis of 13 food samples; no discrepancies between the declared and detected pecan contents were found. The presented PCR method is useful for sensitive and selective detection of pecans in food samples and can be performed in one working day.
