CarnoCheck® DNA chip for the simultaneous identification of 8 animal species in meat food products The horse meat scandal in 2013 highlighted the false declaration of meat food products. Food adulteration may remain undetected, because most routine analysis methods cover only a limited panel of parameters which are screened in one run. New technologies can help to establish a wider screening panel in routine food testing and therefore support the safety of the food supply chain. Microarray technology allows simultaneous identification of a number of parameters in a single analysis....

Working schedule for CarnoCheck® Identification within 3 hours AGEL EREY-N od ® Fo MACH Spin Nucleo 100 mg of a homogenous meat food product is collected. The DNA is extracted by the NucleoSpin® Food DNA Extraction Kit from Macherey Nagel. A fragment of the cytochrome b gene and a control target are amplified by PCR and fluorescently labeled. The amplification products are then hybridised to complementary DNA probes on the chip. The registered trademark of the mentioned manufacturer belongs to above mentioned company.

Each species is detected by a specific DNA probe present in five replicates. Unbound DNA is removed in the subsequent washing steps. The CarnoCheck® chip is scanned, analysed and evaluated using the CheckScanner™ (cat. no. 862 070) and CheckReport™Software (cat. no. 862 080 and 862 084). A report is created that clearly indicates the presence or absence of one or more of the animal species detectabl

Animal species detectable with CarnoCheck®: Donkey (Equus asinus) <5^ Horse (Equus caballus) *5 Chicken*) (Gallus gallus) Sheep (Ovis aries) <5^ Goat (Capra hircus) ‘l In case of detection of a chicken species, the presence of duck species At a glance: CarnoCheck® CarnoCheck® is a DNA based microarray for the determination of animal constituents which allows a rapid and reliable quality control of food products and thus strengthen the confidence of the consumer. With CarnoCheck® eight different animal species can be unequivocally and reliably identified in raw, cooker preserved, boiled or...
