As in the standard PCR, polymerase chain reaction method, DNA is amplified in three successive steps: denaturation, annealing, and extension. However, in the qPCR method, fluorescent labeling allows data to be collected as the polymerase chain reaction progresses. This technique has seen many benefits and has been widely applied in DNA analysis of foodstuffs in recent years for identification, safety and labeling accuracy.
Methods for isolating DNA from food are a highly complex process due to the transport of food components that inhibit the polymerase chain reaction, and food preparation processes such as canning or sterilization lead to DNA degradation.
Methods for isolating DNA from foodstuffs overcome such limitations. The availability of fast, accurate and useful DNA amplification methods has made DNA analysis a suitable option in different researches. In the field of food testing, qPCR and advanced sequencing methods are applied for accurate identification of food components and sensitive detection of contaminants. New techniques make it possible to identify components at the molecular level and detect based on DNA, for example, pork mixed with meat.
In the test, analysis, measurement and evaluation studies carried out in our organization, national and international standards and applicable legal regulations are complied with and reliable and impartial results are obtained. These studies are based on the latest technological equipment, trained and experienced staff and modern methods. Among the numerous tests carried out in this context, there is also the search for pig DNA in foods.
