Abstract

Food allergies and intolerances have increased during the last decades and regulatory authorities have taken different measures to prevent and manage consumers' adverse reactions, including correct labelling of foods. Aim of this work was to search for soybean and lactose in meat products and meat preparations taken from retail in some provinces of Campania Region (Southern Italy) and to evaluate the food labels compliance with Regulation (EU) n.1169/2011. Soybean and lactose were searched using commercial kits in n. 58 samples of meat products produced in or distributed by 19 establishments, and in n. 55 samples of meat products and n. 8 of meat preparations produced in 21 plants. All samples were selected on the basis of the absence of any information on the labels about the presence of the two searched allergens, with the exception of n. 5 samples tested for lactose. Traces of soybean were detected in 50 out of the 58 examined samples, at concentrations up to 0.93 mg kg-1. Only two samples contained levels above the detection limit of 0.31 mg kg-1. Lactose levels ranging from 0.11 to 2.95 g/100 g, i.e. above the detection limit, were found in all the tested samples (n. 63). The results of the present research underline the need for careful controls and planning by operators as part of the self-control plans, and deserve attention from the competent authorities considering not only the consumers' health but also the great attention media pay to regulations providing consumers with information on food.

188. Detection of Campylobacterfrom Poultry Carcass Skin Samples at Slaughter in Southern Italy

Abstract

Campylobacteris a major foodborne pathogen responsible for acute gastroenteritis characterized by diarrhea that is sometimes bloody, fever, cramps, and vomiting. Campylobacterspecies are carried in the intestinal tracts of mammals and birds, and sources of human infection include raw milk, contaminated water, direct contact with pets, and foods, particularly poultry. Campylobacter jejuniand C. coliare the species that account for the majority of human infections. The aim of this work was to determine the prevalence of Campylobacterin 190 poultry carcasses sampled at slaughter and to use a multiplex PCR assay to determine if the isolates were C. jejunior C. coli. C. coliwas not isolated, while C. jejuniwas recovered from 52 (37.1%) of 140 carcasses for which pools of four sampling sites (neck, cloaca, breast, and back) were examined. In the remaining 50 carcasses, the four sites were analyzed separately, and C. jejuniwas recovered from the samples in the following order: neck (n= 20), cloaca (n= 16), breast (n= 14), and back (n= 11). The results are in agreement with those of other studies, which showed that C. jejuniis more commonly associated with poultry than is C. coli. Control strategies for Campylobactershould include interventions to eliminate C. jejuniin poultry at various stages of production and processing, including at slaughter.

189. Mitochondrial Cytochrome bDNA Sequence Variations: An Approach to Fish Species Identification in Processed Fish Products

Author

Pepe, Tiziana, Trotta, Michele, Di Marco, Isolina, Cennamo, Paola, Anastasio, Aniello, and Cortesi, Maria Luisa

Abstract

The identification of fish species in food products is problematic because morphological features of the fish are partially or completely lost during processing. It is important to determine fish origin because of the increasing international seafood trade and because European Community Regulation 104/2000 requires that the products be labeled correctly. Sequence analysis of PCR products from a conserved region of the cytochrome bgene was used to identity fish species belonging to the families Gadidaeand Merluccidaein 18 different processed fish products. This method allowed the identification of fish species in all samples. Fish in all of the examined products belonged to these two families, with the exception of one sample of smoked baccalà (salt cod), which was not included in the Gadidaecluster.
