| Summary: | <b>Aim:</b> Objective of this study were identification of animal
species in meat products marketed in Sivas province using
different methods and comparison of these methods.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> Sucuk, salami, sausage, meatball
and braised meat samples were collected for the investigation
from marketed in Sivas province with random samples
methods in 2014. The identification of meat species in meat
products was investigated using Agar Gel Immunodiffusion
(AGID), and Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)
and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) methods.<p>
<b>Results:</b> All of AGID, ELISA and PCR methods detected positivity
for cattle meat in same samples. Three samples (two
salami and one sucuk) were detected negative for cattle meat
with ELISA. According to the PCR results, total of 11 different
samples together these three samples were detected as small
ruminants (sheep/goat) residues. And there samples were
detected as poultry (chicken) residues. None of the samples
were detected as positive for pig, horse and carnivore (cat)
meats by all three methods.<p>
<b>Conclusions:</b> Besides three methods used being compatible
with each other, the PCR method was found more sensitive.
The absence of residues of unwanted species in meat products
which are commonly consumed in Sivas province, it is
important for public health; also sensitivity of companies to
provide reliable products and it may be related with intensity
of inspections and applying of Meat and Meat Products
