Abstract

In this study, two commercial PCR and ELISA test kits were examined for identification of eight animal species (beef, pork, chicken, duck, turkey, goat, lamb, and horse) from raw meat and meat products in Korea. The detection limit in RAW meat ELISA kit$^{(R)}$ on three types of meat samples blended with beef, pork and chicken, demonstrated that all meat species were differentiable down to 0.2%. RAW meat ELISA kit$^{(R)}$ on animal species resulted in differentiation rate of 94.5% for beef, 93.3% for pork, 90% for lamb, and 100% for chicken, duck, turkey, goat, and horse. In contrast, Powercheck Animal Species ID PCR kit$^{TM}$ resulted in 100% specificity at 0.05% limit of detection for all meat species. The detection limit of Cooked Meat ELISA kit$^{(R)}$ on mixed meat samples heat-treated with different temperatures and times, resulted in 0.1% for all heat-treated mixed meat except for chicken at 1.0%. Additionally, ELISA kit on sixty meat products resulted in specificity of 31.8% for ham, 13.6% for sausages, and 12.5% for ground processed products, and relatively low rate for more than 2 types of mixed meats. On the contrary, meat species differentiation using PCR kit showed higher percentage than that using ELISA kit$^{(R)}$: 50.0% for ham, 41.7% for sausages, and 28.6% for ground processed meat. Futhermore, PCR kit on 54 dried beef meats detected pork genes in 13 products whereas ELISA kit showed negative results for all products. Hence, the possibility of cross-contamination during manufacturing process was investigated, and it was found that identical tumblers, straining trays, cutters and dryers were used in both beef and pork jerky production line, suggesting the inclusion of pork genes in beef products due to cross-contamination. In this study, PCR and ELISA test kits were found to be excellent methods for meat species differentiation in raw meat and heat-processed mixed meat. However, lower differentiation rate demonstrated in case of meat processed products raised the possibility of inclusion of other species due to cross-contamination during manufacturing process.

본 연구에서는 상용화 되고 있는 PCR 및 ELISA kit를 사용하여 국내에서 유통되고 있는 소, 돼지, 닭, 오리, 칠면조, 염소, 양, 말 등 8종의 식육, 혼합육, 그리고 식육가공품에 대하여 축종 감별능력을 평가하였다. 신선육에 대한 RAW meat ELISA kit$^{(R)}$의 검출한계는 축종별 함유율 0.20%~0.05% 이었고, 열처리 혼합육에서는 열처리 온도 및 시간, 그리고 축종별로 검출한계는 함유율 1.0%~0.05% 이하까지 다양한 차이를 나타내었다. 8종의 식육에 대한 축종별 감별력은 소 94.5%, 돼지 93.3%, 양 90.0%, 오리, 염소, 말, 칠면조 모두에서 100%를 나타내었다. Powercheck Animal Species ID PCR kit$^{TM}$의 경우에는 함유율 0.05%의 검출한계를 나타내었고 8종의 모든 축종에서 100%의 특이도를 나타내어 축종별 감별력이 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 햄, 소시지, 분쇄가공품, 식육추출가공품 등 총 60개 식육가공품에 대한 Cooked meat ELISA kit$^{(R)}$의 감별력은 햄(35.3%), 소시지(13.6%), 분쇄가공육(12.5%)의 순으로 나타났으며, 2종 이상의 혼합육에서는 상대적으로 낮은 감별력을 보여 제조과정에서 식육간 교차오염에 의한 혼입가능성이 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 쇠고기 육포 54개 제품에 대하여 다른 고기 혼입여부를 PCR Kit로 검사한 결과 13개 제품에서 돼지고기 유전자가 검출되었지만 ELISA Kit에서는 모두 음성으로 나타났다. PCR 양성 시료의 제조공정 중 교차오염 여부를 조사한 결과, 텀블러, 채반, 절단기, 건조기가 쇠고기 및 돼지고기 육포 생산라인에 동일하게 사용되어 교차오염에 의한 혼입으로 추정되었다. 종교적 이유 및 일부 특정 육류에 대한 알러지 반응 등 식품안전 확보차원에서 제품의 원재료의 올바른 표시와 식육간 교차오염이 발생되지 않도록 철저한 품질관리가 되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
