Abstract
|
|
|
|
The mi-iuy croaker Miichthys miiuy has immense commercial value in the Republic of Korea. The red drum Sciaenops ocellatus is widely produced by aquaculture, although its price is approximately 25% that of M. miiuy. S. ocellatus has black spots on its tail, enabling it to be distinguished from M. miiuy based on appearance. However, identifying S. ocellatus after simple processing steps, such as skin removal and dicing, is difficult. Certain traders misrepresent and sell S. ocellatus as M. miiuy or cultured M. miiuy for illegal economical gain. Therefore, an accurate and rapid identification method is required to distinguish between M. miiuy and S. ocellatus in the field. Here, a method for rapid field identification was developed based on species-specific primers using a portable ultra-fast PCR instrument. The ultra-fast real-time PCR method can complete the entire analytical procedure, including DNA isolation, amplification, and detection, within 30 min, thus maintaining the accuracy of identifying M. miiuy and S. ocellatus products on site. Forty-nine commercial products were tested, and all samples were successfully identified. Thus, the developed method is rapid, efficient tool for ensuring consumer protection.
