Area of Science:

  • Food Science and Technology
  • Molecular Biology
  • Marine Biology

Background:

  • Processed seafood is a significant global food product due to its nutritional value and changing consumer habits.
  • Current EU regulations do not mandate species declaration for processed seafood, though voluntary labeling is common.
  • Accurate species identification is crucial for consumer information and regulatory compliance in the seafood industry.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the species composition of processed seafood products using DNA metabarcoding.
  • To verify the accuracy of species declarations on processed seafood labels.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) for routine food analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Analyzed 20 processed seafood products, each labeled as a single species.
  • Employed DNA metabarcoding targeting two mitochondrial markers: cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) and 16S rRNA.
  • Utilized Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) for high-throughput species identification.

Main Results:

  • The majority of analyzed processed seafood products contained multiple fish species, not the single declared species.
  • Two products were found to be mislabeled, with the declared species absent from the DNA analysis.
  • NGS proved to be a robust and effective method for species verification in processed seafood.

Conclusions:

  • NGS-based DNA metabarcoding is a powerful tool for ensuring accuracy in processed seafood labeling.
  • The findings highlight potential widespread inaccuracies in processed seafood composition and labeling.
  • Adoption of NGS can support food industry quality control and official monitoring programs, improving seafood traceability and combating fraud.
