In this study, probe/primers of high specificity and sensitivity were selected to analyze donkey-hide gelatin for donkey DNA and to look for horse, ox, and pig DNA as possible adulterants. The mitochondrial CO I genes in donkey, horse, and ox were selected as target sequences for design and synthesis of three pairs of specific probes and primers. In addition, eight pairs of probe/primers were obtained via literature search. Out of these eleven groups of probe/primers, those with the highest specificity and sensitivity were selected, which was fulfilled by the screening firstly with animal hide samples then the hide-glue samples. Other parameters that might affect detection specificity and efficiency-such as the amount of sampling and final concentration of primers-were also optimized. Replication tests were also conducted. The results showed that the selected probe/primers could accurately detect donkey DNA and horse, ox, and pig DNA in gelatin samples with good reproducibility. Analysis of four samples of on-market gelatin using this assay showed that two of the four samples indeed contained only donkey DNA, whereas the other two samples contained both donkey and horse DNA, indicating adulteration of these samples with horse hide. These results indicate that the TaqMan probe real-time PCR method can be used for identifying the purity of donkey DNA in gelatin samples, and can provide technical support for identifying adulterations in the gelatin market.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
