A versatile real-time PCR method to quantify bovine contamination in buffalo products (2013, methodology): “Among the DNA-based technologies, PCR was chosen for the present study because it can quickly and specifically amplify small DNA quantities (Mafra et al., 2007) e even after heavy food processing (Rodríguez-Ramírez, González-Córdova, & Vallejo-Cordoba, 2011).”
Molecular marker based adulteration detection in traded food and agricultural commodities of plant origin with special reference to spices. (2010, background): “PCR presents a high potential in adulterant detection and authentication of commodities due to its simplicity, sensitivity, specificity as well as rapid processing time and low cost (51,64,65).”
A review of current PCR-based methodologies for the authentication of meats from game animal species. (2010, methodology): “Martı́nez and Danielsdottir (2000) correctly identified different seal and whale meat products (frozen, smoked, salted, dried, etc.) by RAPD and PCR-SSCP techniques using consensus primers designed on the mitochondrial cytochrome gene. Yau, Wong, Shaw, But, and Wang (2002) authenticated by RAPD-PCR ”
Molecular identification methods of fish species: reassessment and possible applications (2009, methodology): “The development of analytical methods for fish species identification may help to detect and avoid wilful, as well as unintentional substitution of different fish species and thus enforce labeling regulations (Lockley and Bardsley 2000; Teletchea et al. 2005; Asensio 2007; Mafra et al. 2008).”
Multiplex PCR in Species Authentication: Probability and Prospects—A Review (2014, methodology): “Conventional PCR techniques (Ali et al. 2013; Mafra et al. 2007) which involve time-consuming electrophoresis have been replaced by automated real-time PCRs including SYBER green (Soares et al. 2013), Eva green (Santos et al. 2012), and TaqMan PCRs (Kesmen et al. 2013; Ulca et al. 2013).”
