Abstract

20

Indian food is exceptional from rest of the world not only in taste but also in culinary procedures,

21

which reflects a perfect blend of various cultures and ages. Indian culinary procedures involved in

22

preparation of Indian meat recipes, incur heavy processing and profound use of spices. In parts, the

23

authentication of processed ingredients present in the food is a major concern to ensure food safety

24

and quality as well as for certification. There is a growing demand for the enhancement of quality

25

controls, hence addressing scientific research towards the development of reliable molecular tools

26

for food traceability. Over the past decade, DNA barcoding was most commonly used molecular

27

method, which can ascertain biological specimens, and is used for the identification of both raw

28

materials and processed food. We tested the applicability of this method to authenticate variously

29

processed meat species under Indian culinary practices and revealed DNA barcoding can provide,

30

fast and reliable method for its traceability. The obtained results indicated that Indian culinary

31

practices for popular meat recipes although use considerable processing and profound spice, do not

32

interfere meat DNA quality for downstream application for species authentication using DNA

33

barcoding by COI gene. Species authenticity for geographical origin is exigent by the DNA barcoding

34

procedure. However, the pickled products are not trackable for species authentication since the

35

culinary processes involved, challenges DNA quality for further applications.

Authentication of origin of meat species processed under various Indian culinary procedures

65

using DNA Barcoding 1. Introduction

67

Indian food is exceptional from rest of the world not only in taste but also in culinary procedures,

68

which reflects a perfect blend of various cultures and ages. Generous use of spice is the speciality of

69

almost all types of recipes. Strong impact was made on the Indian cuisine during the Mughals era in

70

sixteenths century. Mughals’ cooking was truly based on meat, whose influence is strongest in north

71

and central India. Since then well-known Mughlai dishes have been developed into an important

72

culinary art and became part of Indian cuisine. Several recipes are derived from original Mughal

73

cooking blends and popularized throughout the world. These dishes are very popular globally through

74

Indian restaurants or are sold as ready to eat processed food in super market like, frozen, canned or

75

dehydrated food. In parts, the food prepared either in restaurants or processed in large batches in food

76

industries, food authentication is an important area in recent past (FSAI, 2013; FSSAI, 2013).

77

The consumer awareness and concern about the food they consume is considerably elevated.

78

Globally, consumers are empowered by the Court of Law to know about their food and its source. The

79

traceability is important in food authentication, which ensures the origin of food. In human

80

civilization, some societies prefer certain type of food while other food items are strictly prohibited,

81

either due to religious concern, health issues or personal preferences. Another issue associated is food

82

frauds by substituting highly valued food components with low quality ingredients of similar origin

83

(Bottero & Dalmasso, 2011; Khedkar et al., 2016). It not only defrauds the consumer but may result

84

into psychological consequences. Any case of food adulteration especially when reported by the

85

media, has a great impact on public opinion (Galimberti et al., 2013). For consumer and regulatory

86

confidence with respect to food quality and food safety along the supply chain from production,

87

processing and retailing from the point of origin to the point of sale is expected (Turci, SavoSardaro,

88

Visioli, Maestri, & Marmiroli, 2010). Therefore, the description and/or labelling of food must be

89

authentic and accurate, principally if the food has been processed removing the ability to distinguish

90

one ingredient from another.

91

Some examples of substitution of high quality materials with ones of lower value given that superior

92

produce can significantly appreciate the price difference compared with the corresponding replacing

93

ingredient. It is easy to see the commercial gains that can be made by devious food producers

94

(Ashurst & Dennis, 1996; Patel, 1994).They shall, if possible, give information on animal species,

95

origin, authenticity, composition, age and production systems (Woolfe and Primrose, 2005).

96

Consequently, it is necessary to have reliable methods, which allow fast and unequivocal information

97

related to these issues. The demand for reliable food traceability systems has addressed the scientific

98

research, hence generating different analytical approaches to this issue (Rasmussen & Morrisey, 2011;

In recent past detection of species using DNA barcoding has become more popular and reliable due to use of mitochondrial DNA and universal primers in contrast to the use of species-specific PCR methods for detection of various mammalian and poultry species in meat and meat products (Sheikha, Farag, Mokhtar, Lamasudin, Isa & Mustafa, 2017; Zhong, Wang, Fang, Li & Yu, 2017; Hellberg, Hernandez & Hernandez, 2017; Arslan, Ilhak, & Calicioglu, 2006; Meyer, Candrian & Luethy, 1994). These PCR methods targets genomic as well as mitochondrial DNA for the purpose of meat species identification, even in cooked meat under different processing conditions. However, in the present study the mitochondrial DNA was used for meat species identification because of the maternal inheritance, normally only one allele exists in an individual and thus no sequence ambiguities are expected from the presence of multiple allele (Unseld, Beyermann, Brandt, & Hiesel, 1995).

111

Moreover, due to specific cooking methods, spicy taste, delicacy and attractive food presentation,

112

Indian meat recipes are in appreciation all over the world. In all these recipes, excessive use of oil,

113

herbs, spices and high processing temperature, may be considered as a limiting factor for obtaining

114

good quality DNA for food traceability (Sakalar, Abasiyanik, Bektik, & Tayyrov, 2012).

115

Considering aforesaid important issues related to Indian meat cuisine and future implications in food

116

processing sector and meat trade, present study was planned. The overall objective was to test

117

applicability of DNA barcoding to authenticate meat species used in popular Indian culinary practices

118

for meat traceability compliances.

2. Materials and methods

121

2.1 Meat sampling

122

For food traceability of various meat recipes, common and popular seven Indian culinary practices

123

were selected. Almost all types of meat items fall in these categories as far as food processing

124

methods are concern are shown in Fig. 1. All recipes were processed through professional chefs and

125

cooking temperature, various ingredients used in each recipe are mentioned in Table 1. From these

126

recipes, meat samples were randomly collected in triplicate and preserved in absolute ethanol for

127

further laboratory processing for traceability studies (Table S1). Untreated raw meat sample from

128

each species is included as a positive control.

129

2.2 DNA extraction, PCR and Sequencing

130

DNA was extracted from all meat items by taking 100mg of meat tissue using Wizard genomic DNA

131

purification kit (Promega, Madison, WI.) following manufacturer’s instructions. Purified DNA was

132

quantified and diluted uniformly to have a final concentration of 100ng/µL. Quality of DNA was

136

Polymerase (Kapa Biosystems, USA) and 10 ng template DNA. Reactions were performed using

137

Veriti Thermal Cycler (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA).

138

All PCR products were visualized on 1.2% agarose gel using gel documentation system (Bio Rad,

139

USA) and photographed for further reference. Selected samples were sequenced bidirectional for

140

further analysis of species authentication (Sequencing carried out in-house at Paul Hebert Centre for

141

DNA barcoding and Biodiversity Studies facility on ABI 3130 genetic analyser).

142

2.3 Data analysis

143

For every meat recipe samples were collected in triplicate, thus a total no of 210 samples were tested.

144

The DNA concentration mentioned are the average concentration of samples tested in triplicates. The

145

Resultant COI sequences were rectified visually following base calling and aligned using Codon-code

146

aligner v 3.0 ( trial version of CodonCode Corporation, MA, USA). All sequences were deposited to

147

BOLD systems (www.boldsystems.org), and statistically analysed for species identification using

148

global alignment through hidden Markov model (HMM) embaded in species identification system of

149

BOLD (Eddy, 1998). Few sequences already available for meat species from various geographical

150

regions were downloaded from BOLD systems for analysis of possibility for geographical identity of

151

meat species.

152

3. Results

153

Altogether, ten meat commodities were collected under this study and processed for six traditional

154

Indian meat cuisines (Fig.1). All processed samples of meat were employed for DNA extraction,

155

where we obtained DNA in reasonable quantity for downstream laboratory applications as shown in

156

Table 3. To assess the effect of various processing methods on DNA, its quality was checked on 1 %

157

agarose gel (Fig. 2).

158

Further, all resultant DNA samples were employed for amplification of cytochrome oxidase -1 gene

159

for species authentication. We observed most of the samples were successfully amplified for

160

cytochrome oxidase -1 gene (Fig. 3). Moreover, the quality of DNA recovered from pickled samples

161

was poor, failed in PCR amplifications (Fig. 2; Table 3). The results for DNA quality and temperature

162

do not show any statistical correlation (P < 0.01).

163

Some of the randomly selected PCR products were bidirectional sequenced to check the DNA

164

sequence integrity. We could obtain full-length sequences of >500 bp on an average.

sequences were BLAST on NCBI (Geer et al., 2010) as well as BOLD data system to test the success

4. Discussions

169

Over the time, health awareness has increased to several fold and consumers are curious to know the

170

accurate information about the food they consume. In order to keep them informed, regarding their

171

diet and the nature of the food they purchase, food traceability has become important issue

172

(Kang'ehte, Gathuma & Lindqvist, 1986). The reasons are numerous, but when certain individual is

173

allergic to some food commodity, for religious reason or personal preference, where fraudulent food

174

claims may deceive consumer confidence (Masiri et al., 2016, Perret, Tabin, Marcoz, Lior &

175

Cheseaux, 2011). In particular, Indian culinary procedures with heavy processing usually at high

176

temperature, limits the identity of ingredient to the consumer. Determination of the source of food and

177

food products is an analytically challenging problem and one that is currently the focus of global

178

scientific attention (Ali, Kashif, Uddin, Hashim, Mustafa, & Che Man, 2012; Novak, Grausgruber-

179

Gröger, & Lukas, 2007; Sakalar, Abasiyanik, Bektik, & Tayyrov, 2012; Bauer, Weller, , Hammes, &

180

Hertel, 2003, Kharazmi, Bauer, Hammes, & Hertel, 2003).

181

Under this study, we evaluated the utility of DNA barcode based food authentication for Indian meat

182

cuisine for the traceability compliances. This approach is based on the analysis of the variability

183

within a standard region of the genome called “DNA barcode” (Hebert, Ratnasingham, & deWaard,

184

2003). This approach proved useful in solving taxonomic problems in several theoretical and practical

185

applications (Hollingsworth, Graham, Little, 2011; Rasmussen, Morrissey, & Hebert , 2009;

186

Valentini, Pompanon, & Taberlet, 2009; Khedkar, Jamdade, Naik, Lior, Haymer, 2014). Legitimately,

187

DNA barcoding is not completely novel, because molecular identification approaches were already in

188

use (Casiraghi, Labra, Ferri, Galimberti, & Mattia, 2010). A major challenge in the implementation of

189

these procedures is the development of suitable quantification methods for processed foods where

190

DNA is absent or substantially damaged and therefore difficult to detect and quantify (Ballari and

191

Martin, 2013). Understanding the effects of culinary processing on DNA was necessary for the

192

development/assessment of reliable methods for species authentication. This mandates rigorous

193

investigations on DNA fragmentation within processed food matrices. Our result of preprocessed

194

meat commodity and variously processed Indian meat cuisine demonstrates no substantial change in

195

DNA content (Table 3) and quality (Fig. 2). These results are in confirmation with the variously

196

reported studies (Nguyen-Hieu, Aboudharam, Drancourt, 2012; Bergerova, Hrncirova, Stankovska,

197

Lopasovska, & Siekel, 2010; Debode, Janssen & Berben, 2007; Samson, Gulli, & Marmiroli, 2010).

198

Contrast to the findings of this study, Ballari and Martin (2013) reported substantial DNA degradation

199

where DNA purified from transgenic maize and DNA amplicons were directly exposed to 100 0C.

200

Also, study on meat processing by Sakalar et al. (2012) reveals that the DNA fragment size was

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT progressively altered (degraded) into smaller fragments with increased duration of heating and

202

temperature. Our study indicates, natural DNA packing either in nucleus or in mitochondria, protects

203

DNA damaging from various agents like chemicals or temperature. In parts, our study demonstrated

204

that in some culinary processes like, roasting temperature reaches 1900C, still DNA quality was good

205

enough for downstream applications. Moreover, DNA quality and quantity from pickled products was

206

poor and can be correlated to high oil content in these products (~30%) which might be interfering

207

DNA extraction efficiency but use of vinegar might degrading DNA (Costa, Amaral, Fernandes,

208

Batista, Oliveira & Mafra, 2015; Ponzoni, Mastromauro, Gianì, & Breviario, 2009). In addition, under

209

pickling procedures, pH value is maintained in the range of 3- 4.0 when pickle is stable (Shukla and

210

Srivastava, 1999, Siriskar, Khedkar, & David, 2013), normally it

211

degradation, whereas, further lowered pH may degrade DNA rapidly. During pickling process, vast

212

variations in pH values were reported (Siriskar, Khedkar, & David, 2013).

213

For further analysis of recovered DNA for downstream success of PCR amplification, it was assumed

214

that several metabolites present in spice may inhibit PCR (Low and Shaw, 2018; Sahu, Thangaraj &

215

Kathiresan, 2012). As, all samples were successful with expected amplicon size, except all pickled

216

products where only primer dimers can be seen (Fig. 3), the cooking temperature and or additives

217

used in culinary procedures indicates that DNA extraction protocol is appropriate for meat traceability

218

compliances (Rastogi et al., 2004). In addition, study indicates that ingredients used under Indian

219

meat cuisine can be tracked for traceability compliances as they do not inhibit PCR for molecular

220

profiling (Schrader, Schielke, Ellerbroek & Johne, 2012; Moreira & Oliveira, 2011; Opel, Chung, &

221

McCord, 2010). In case of pickle samples, PCR amplification was not successful (Fig. 3), it implies

222

that, although DNA remains stable under high pH but extreme low pH (∼pH 3) may cause

223

depurination resulting nicks on DNA strand, leading to PCR failure (Kharazmi, Bauer, Hammes, &

224

Hertel, 2003; Bauer, 2003).

225

The results of randomly selected samples for DNA barcode to recover an average sequence length

226

over 500 base pairs (Table 4) were sufficient against the suggested sequence length of 300 bases by

227

Hird et al., (2006). Our findings are in contrast to the variously reported studies on correlation of

228

temperature and fragment length (Sakalar, Abasiyanik, Bektik, & Tayyrov, 2012; Aslan, Hamill,

229

Sweeney, Reardon & Mullen, 2009). As stated earlier, DNA quality and quantity was not influenced

230

by the Indian meat culinary procedures and DNA remains well protected inside the protecting cover

231

of mitochondria (Foran, 2006). Advantages of using mitochondrial DNA for species authentication

232

were widely reported, as it protects DNA damage at high temperature cooking, as well as multiple

233

copies of mitochondria ensures DNA quantity and quality which was conceptually studied by Foran

234

(2006). There by indicating that the DNA barcoding method works well for the samples those are

235

obtained from various culinary practices used in Indian meat cuisine for traceability compliances.

has limited effect on DNA

7

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Besides species authentication, the proportion of a species in the product is also important for quality

237

control, which is the limitation of DNA barcoding as traditional Sanger DNA sequencing generates a

238

sequence representing the dominant PCR product. Capturing less copy numbers template is a low

239

degree probability and multiple sequencing for same amplicon imparts heavy costs and excess time.

240

Minor products with certain degrees of mismatches to primers are missed and often not effectively

241

amplified (Sipos, Szekely, Palatinszky, Revesz, Marialigeti, & Nikolausz, 2007). Also, from BLAST

242

results, species can be identified easily (Table 4), but the geographical identity was not possible, as

243

within species differences are considered to be in the range < 3 based on evaluation of nearest related

244

species (Hebert, Cywinska, Ball, DeWaard, 2003). This within species genetic difference range is too

245

narrow to capture geographical variations and species boundary (Khedkar, Jamdade, Naik, David,

246

Haymer, 2014).

247

Thus, the study indicates that DNA being a stable molecule does not get damaged due to the

248

processing in most popular Indian culinary practices. DNA amplification was successful except

249

pickled products, reveals absence of PCR inhibitors in Indian culinary processes in spite of use of

250

ample spice. Amplified PCR products can be directly used for sequencing and for species

251

identification. However, due to narrow range COI sequence variations (< 3 %) geographical species

252

identity is in challenge. Moreover, our findings underline the recovery of poor quality DNA from

253

finished pickled meat products, which were not sufficient for PCR amplification and sequencing.

254

Additional studies are being carried out to simplify the process which can be applicable for

255

traceability compliances as well as to quantify amount of species in the Indian meat culinary product.

256

5. Conclusion

257

Certifying the genuinely of food materials used is important to ensure consumers confidence.

258

Authentication is pivotal for legal authorities to detect the ingredients in food products. The obtained

259

results indicated that Indian culinary practices for popular meat recipes although use considerable

260

processing and profound spice, do not interfere meat DNA quality for downstream application for

261

species authentication using DNA barcoding by COI gene. Species authenticity for geographical

262

origin is exigent by the DNA barcoding procedure. However, the pickled products are not trackable

263

for species authentication since the culinary processes involved, challenges DNA quality for further

264

applications.
