A fragment of 3 March 2014 464 bp length of mitochondrial cytoehrome b gene was amplified by PCR and the products were digested Accepted 6 March 2014 with restriction enzymes DdeI, HaeIII and NlaIII, individually.

On the contrary, the new lab-on-a-chip system has advantages in simple and convenient manipulation In recent years, more and more cases of adulteration including and speed. Moreover, the lab-on-a-chip system is more secure due mislabeling, fraud and substitution with cheaper fish arose in the to eliminating the gel staining step and it has been used for dif- fish market. Hence, techniques that enable authentication of ferentiation of white fish (Dooley, Sage, Clarke, Brown, & Garrett, commercial fishery products are highly requested to guarantee 2005). accurate labeling and fraudulent substitution. Taiwan Strait is a 180-km-wide, 360-km-long, and 60-m-deep Species identification of fish is typically based on morphological channel separating Mainland China and Taiwan, and links the East characteristics. However, most of the external features allowing China Sea with the South China Sea. As an important fishing morphological identification of whole fish are not apparent after resource, there are more than 700 ocean fish species. Among them processing. DNA and protein based methods are also used for fish over one hundred are important commercial species and most of identification. Protein method has less advantage on processed them belong to Order Perciformes. Due to big variety in quality and sample in which protein may be already denatured or degraded. price, differentiate fish with similar morphology but different in DNA based methods tend to be more favorite and reliable due to commercial value is an important issue. their high specificity and sensitivity, strong stability and easy The purpose of the present work was to discriminate fish species application. In particular, because of ease-of-use, low cost and in Taiwan Strait using PCR-RFLP approach and lab-on-a-chip sys- repeatable, PCR-RFLP has become widely used for fish species tem, and offer a rapid, ease-of-use, safe and effective analysis identification, such as cod fish (Akasaki, Yanagimoto, Yamakami, method for label certification.
