“…Recently, there have been many reports on the application of stable isotope and multi-element analysis, followed by chemometrics, to identify the origin of agro-products, including oil (Angerosa et al, 1999;Richter, Spangenberg, Kreuzer, & Leiber, 2010), milk (Chesson, Podlesak, Thompson, Cerling, & Ehleringer, 2008;Chesson, Valenzuela, O'Grady, Cerling, & Ehleringer, 2010;Crittenden et al, 2007), wine (Dutra et al, 2011), tea (Pilgrim, Watlin, & Grice, 2010), and so on. In recent years, several studies have been reported on distinguishing the meat origins by various analytical tools (Franke, Gremaud, Hadorn, & Kreuzer, 2005;Osorio, Moloney, Schmidt, & Monahan, 2011a;Perini, Camin, Bontempo, Rossmann, & Piasentier, 2009;Sacco, Brescia, Buccolieri, & Jambrenghi, 2005). Characteristic fingerprints of elements may directly depend on the environment that the animals lived in and the locally grown feeds (Franke et al, 2005;Millet, Van den, De Smet, & Janssens, 2005;Osorio, Moloney, Schmidt, & Monahan, 2011b;Reykdal, Rabieh, Steingrimsdottir, & Gunnlaugsdottir, 2011).…”
