Implementation of a Molecular System for Traceability of Beef Based on Microsatellite Markers

Animal products traceability has acquired considerable importance as a security measure in EEC member countries since the food crisis of the mid-nineties. This has led to reinforcing the capacity to manage cattle product quality, with traceability emerging as the main tool to prevent risks to produc...
