DNA/Nano based advanced genetic detection tools for authentication of species: Strategies, prospects and limitations

Authentication, detection and quantification of ingredients, and adulterants in food, meat, and meat products are of high importance these days. The conventional techniques for the detection of meat species based on lipid, protein and DNA biomarkers are facing challenges due to the poor selectivity,...
