 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 13 Stable isotope analysis of hydrogen in the traceability of beef origin Of: Polly Wei Yimin Guo Wei Shuai Kelly D. Simon Jia-Rong Pan [Abstract] discussed the use of high-temperature pyrolysis furnace and isotope ratio mass spectrometer (IRMS) coupled with determination of the stability of the hydrogen isotope ratios in meat method, and measured using this method, different geographical sources of fat beef, cattle hair in the hydrogen isotope ratios. analysis of hydrogen isotope composition of cattle tissues and geographical longitude, latitude and altitude changes in the relationship, and the stability of the hydrogen isotope used in the feasibility of the provenance of beef. The results show that the source of cattle tissues in different regions δ2H significant difference between the value of its and hydrogen isotopic composition of the local drinking water is closely related to geographic latitude and has increased with the decreasing tendency; δ2H beef cattle hair and the significant correlation values. the stability of the hydrogen isotope is used for a useful provenance of beef potential indicators, and the beef and cattle hair in the reflection of the hydrogen isotope composition of cattle can be source of information. [Keywords:] beef, place of origin, traceability and stability of hydrogen isotopes 1 Introduction With the globalization of food production and trade, development, and the frequent occurrence of food safety, governments, food regulators and consumers are increasingly concerned about food origin. High-precision analysis of natural abundance of stable isotopes is now considered back origin of food is an effective technology. organisms of stable carbon and nitrogen isotope method is relatively mature, stable measurement results, commonly used in plant identification and adulteration of food-borne source of identification, and animal food and nutrition class research .20 90 century, with the mad cow diseas
