Objective

To develop of a duplex real-time fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based method for the authentication of yak milk and yak-cattle milk.

Methods

Using species-specific nuclear chromosome genes of yak and cattle as targets, real-time PCR primers and probes were designed, and the duplex real-time fluorescence PCR system was optimized to achieve simultaneous detection of yak- and cattle-derived components in yak milk and yak-cattle milk.

Results

The optimized duplex real-time fluorescence PCR system produced standard curves for yak milk (Y=–3.4015X+30.842, r2=0.9953) and cattle-yak milk (Y=–3.333X+30.035,r2=0.9984) showing excellent linearity, with amplification efficiencies of 96.78% and 99.54%, respectively. No cross-reactivity was observed with milk components from cattle, sheep, donkey, camel or other species, indicating strong specificity. In adulteration testing, the method successfully detected as low as 10% yak-cattle milk mixed into yak milk. Additionally, testing of 17 real samples confirmed the method’s high accuracy.

Conclusion

A duplex real-time fluorescence PCR method based on species-specific nuclear gene sequences is successfully developed in this study. This method enables accurate detection of yak-derived and yak-cattle-derived components in dairy products, providing a reliable approach for the authenticity identification of yak milk.
