Show abstract
Reliable DNA isolation is a critical prerequisite for PCR-based food authentication, particularly for meat products where complex matrices may compromise DNA quality and amplification efficiency. This study aimed to analytically validate an automated DNA extraction method from meat matrices using Qiagen QIAcube Connect in combination with the DNeasy(R) Mericon Food Kit. Validation parameters included DNA concentration, total yield, purity, integrity, and assessment of PCR inhibitors using real-time PCR targeting the porcine cytochrome b gene. The method produced a mean DNA concentration of 219.5 ng/{micro}L with an average yield of 21,519.7 ng, exceeding predefined acceptance criteria. Agarose gel electrophoresis confirmed DNA fragment sizes larger than the target amplicon, indicating suitability for PCR analysis. Real-time PCR evaluation demonstrated excellent linearity (R2 = 0.99-1.00), amplification efficiencies between 90.34% and 99.84%, and mean {Delta}Ct values of 0.10, confirming the absence of PCR inhibition. These results indicate that the validated automated method is robust, reproducible, and suitable for routine PCR-based meat species authentication in food control laboratories.
