Abstract

Competitive indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (Ci-ELISA) was used to obtain the preliminary data for the detection of irradiated beef. Ci-ELISA was individually formatted with polyclonal antibodies produced from 2 kinds of bovine proteins, myosin and bovine serum albumin (BSA). Beef round, loin and tender loin were vacuum-packaged and subdivided into 3 groups of 1) irradiation; 2) irradiation and chilled at 4$^{\circ}C$ for 7 day; 3) irradiation and frozen at 2$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 months to observe the changes under different storage and/or distribution conditions. Irradiation was performed at 3, 5 and 7 kGy. Protein solutions prepared from the sample were tested by formatted Ci-ELISA. Detected concentrations of myosin and BSA decreased with the increased irradiation dose in all samples with different reduction rates. Myosin was more susceptible to freezing than BSA. Samples irradiated at 5 kGy or above could be differentiated from non-irradiated ones by Ci-ELISA. These results indicate that immunological assay can be used as a detection method for irradiated beef.
