Keywords:

  • DNA-based detection of commercial fish species;
  • international growth in trade and consumption of fish - increased potential for species substitution or mislabelling;
  • protein analysis, as isoelectric focusing (IEF) and immunoassays;
  • DNA-based methods and gene targets;
  • PCR-AFLP, technique involving aspects - of both PCR-RFLP and PCR-RAPD;
  • multiplex PCR, adapted for use with real-time PCR;
  • appropriate gene target - for species identification involving several factors;
  • fish species substitution, worldwide problem - in terms of domestic and international trade;
  • use of DNA barcodes - identifying Canadian freshwater fish in context of FISH-BOL;
  • DNA-based techniques, detection of commercial fish species substitution - and traditional sequencing
