Abstract

Adulteration of meat products by addition of substances of lower value is prohibited for fair trading, consumer protection, religious reasons or public health. Several methods are used for the identification of meat species and for the adulteration in meat products. Two important groups of methods exist: immunological methods and DNA-based analyses. lmmunological methods are currently used but failed in analysis of treated meat samples or food products with complex matrices.

The present review report methods based on DNA analysis. Principal methods used to reveal DNA polymorphism are described as their applicability in species identification and meat traceability.
