ABSTRACT
18 19
Fish substitution and fish fraud are widely observed on the global food market. To detect and
20
prevent substitution, DNA-based methods do not always meet the demand of being time- and
21
cost-efficient; therefore, methodology improvements are needed. The use of species-specific
22
protein patterns, as determined by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ ionization time-of-flight
23
(MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry has recently improved species identification of
24
prokaryotes, both time- and cost-wise. We have used the method to establish a database
25
containing protein patterns of common food fish prone to substitution. The database currently
26
comprises 54 fish species. Aspects such as the sensitivity of identification on species level
27
and the impact of bacterial contamination of fish filet are assessed. Most database entries are
28
characterized by low intraspecies but high interspecies variability. Hitherto, 118 validation
29
samples were successfully determined. The herein presented results underline the potential
30
and reliability of eukaryotic species identification via MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.

INTRODUCTION
37 38
The substitution and mislabeling of food fish is a common practice in the global food market.1
39
Substitution becomes particularly difficult to identify when the fish have already been
40
processed and characteristic features such as head, fins, and skin are missing. Cases of
41
substitution do appear unintentionally but may also be deliberate, thus leading to food fraud.
42
With the aim of criminal economic gain, high value fish are substituted with fish of lower
43
value.2,3 Moreover, the consumption of mislabeled fish may cause health risks in specific
44
cases.4,5 The appearance of endangered species on the market, being sold under different
45
names is an additional issue.6
46
The substitution rate of fish is often dependent on the species.1,7–10 Particular species are
47
prone to substitution, as there are grouper (Ephinephelus sp.),9,11,12 northern red snapper
48
(Lutjanus campechanus)
49
(Solea solea).
50
cod (Gadus morhua and Gadus macrocephalus) are frequently substituted.12,18,19
51
To monitor correct labeling of fish, suitable methods for safe and fast species identification
52
are needed. Currently, food authenticity with reference to species identification is facilitated
53
by molecular DNA methods. These methods are well established and reliable; however, they
54
are still rather cost-intensive and time consuming under certain circumstances. These
55
circumstances include non-targeted approaches or when there is no fast detection method,
56
such as real time PCR options, available for certain selected species.
57
An alternative method of species identification does not focus on DNA but on a species-
58
specific protein pattern, a so-called protein fingerprint, that is obtained by matrix-assisted
59
laser desorption/ ionization – time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). This type
60
of species identification, also known as MALDI fingerprinting, is established for
16,17
13–15
or flatfish with a high market value, such as the common sole
However, also rather common food fish species like Atlantic and Pacific

61
microorganisms such as bacteria,20–22 yeast,23 and other fungi.24 Its advantages are found in its
62
low-cost, time efficient performance 25–27 and reliability, and it has found wide application in
63
clinical diagnostics 28 and develops in the veterinary sector.29,30 Initial research has shown that
64
the applicability of protein pattern-based species identification is also possible for higher
65
eukaryotes.31–34 With regards to marine fauna, the primary feasibility of the MALDI
66
fingerprinting method is already shown for the identification of fish
67
like scallops
68
demonstrated, comprehensive databases that are available for routine verification of fish and
69
other types of seafood remain to be generated.
70
In this study, we aimed to establish fish species identification via MALDI fingerprinting for
71
routine applications in e.g. service laboratories. A protein fingerprint database of common
72
food fish, obtained by application of MALDI-TOF MS was developed. Emphasis was set on
73
those species that are prone to substitution, to allow the database to be used for efficient
74
identification of mislabeling and fraud. Known samples were used, to test the quality and
75
reliability of both the methodology and the database. Further parameters like the impact of
76
bacterial contamination of filet on species determination were assessed.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
78 79
Sample material (database and validation samples). Based on literature research, a list of
80
fish species prone to substitution and mislabeling was prepared. Hence, priority for the build-
81
up of the database was set on those fish species previously associated with cases of
82
substitution. Due to feasible availability, a second emphasis was set on species that are mainly
83
offered on the mid-European market. Most individuals were obtained via collaboration with a
84
food retailer. A minority of fish samples for database build-up were received from
85
supermarkets, fish shops, and fishmongers (both frozen and chilled fish). As a prerequisite, all
86
individuals belonging to one species were caught on different dates. Where possible, further
87
attention was paid to variation in parameters like origin (oceanic region; wild catch or
88
aquaculture) and variation in the provider.
89
Validation samples were received from supermarkets, fish shops, and fishmongers.
90 91
MALDI-TOF MS sample preparation and measurement. All preparation steps were
92
conducted under cooling conditions (handling of fish on cool packs, use of cooling blocks for
93
sample tubes). Representative sample aliquots were retrieved from fresh, first cuts of a filet,
94
whereas surface areas and distinctive parts like skin, scales, or bones were omitted. Aliquots
95
were immediately processed or kept frozen at -20 °C until further use. 0.220 +/- 0.005 g filet
96
were placed in 2 mL lysis tubes (lysis matrix B, MP Biomedicals, Eschwege, Germany) and
97
combined with 500 µL cooled 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA; 2-8 °C; Sigma-Aldrich,
98
Steinheim, Germany) prepared in LC-MS grade water (Fluka Analytical, Steinheim,
99
Germany). Cells were broken by bead mill treatment (20 s, 4.0 m sc-1; MP FastPrep). Samples
100
were kept at 2-8 °C for 15 min as a potential pause- and re-cooling point. Sample tubes were
101
centrifuged afterwards (15 s, 20,000 rcf). The sample supernatant was diluted with cooled 5
ACS Paragon Plus Environment

102
TFA (0.1%) by a factor 5. From the diluted sample, 1 µL was applied to the sample spot of a
103
MALDI target (MSP 96 target polished BC, Bruker Daltonik, Bremen, Germany). After
104
drying at room temperature, the spot was covered with 1 µL α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid
105
solution (HCCA, 0.01 g mL-1; Bruker Daltonik). HCCA solution was prepared in ready-made
106
2.5% TFA in 50% acetonitrile (LC-MS grade, Fluka Analytical).
107
Protein mass spectra were determined with a Bruker microflex LT instrument (Bruker
108
Daltonik), operated in linear positive mode (mass range 2-20 kDa (m/z)). ‘Bacterial Test
109
Standard’ (Bruker Daltonik) was used for calibration (eight protein masses in a range from
110
3637.8 to 16952.3 Da). Sum spectra were generated and obtained from 240 laser shots (6 x 40
111
shots, minimal accepted intensity 400).
112 113
Generation of database entries (main spectra, MSPs), testing of intraspecies similarity,
114
and determination of validation samples. One database entry, generated from a set of
115
quality checked single spectra, is commonly termed main spectrum (MSP). For each MSP,
116
one sample was spotted ten times onto the target, from each spot three sample spectra were
117
determined (30 single spectra in total). One species in the database was to be represented by
118
three individuals. From each individual, two MSPs were generated (in total six MSPs per
119
species). FlexAnalysis software version 3.4 (Bruker Daltonik) was used for quality testing
120
according to the following parameters: only those mass spectra being a sum of 6 x 40 (=240)
121
laser shots were considered, the most intense peak of one spectrum had to have a relative
122
intensity of at least 10,000. In a range from 3,000 to 10,000 Da, all spectra of one set were
123
checked each 1,000 Da for peak deviation with reference to the same mass peak. A maximum
124
of 500 ppm difference between lowest and highest mass observed between spectra was
125
accepted. Single spectra not fulfilling these prerequisites were removed from the dataset.
126
Minimum 20 single spectra were mandatory for the generation of one MSP. MSPs were 6

127
generated with MALDI Biotyper 3 software (Bruker Daltonik; 3,000 to 15,000 Da, S/N = 3,
128
max. 70 peaks).
129
To test the intraspecies similarity, those single spectra that were detected for the preparation
130
of an MSP were compared to the MSPs of the other individuals of the same species. When
131
doing so, the two MSPs of the ‘own’ individual were removed to avoid a match ‘against
132
itself’. Obtained result-scores were documented. Dendrograms were generated with MALDI
133
Biotyper 3 software.
134
Validation samples were processed once and spotted three times onto the MALDI target.
135
From each spot, three mass spectra were determined (in total nine spectra per sample).
136
Obtained mass spectra were compared to the database. Top species hits and result-scores were
137
recorded.
138 139
Species confirmation via DNA barcoding. The species of fish samples was confirmed by
140
DNA barcoding. In detail, the 5’ region of the cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) was sequenced.40
141
DNA was extracted using a Maxwell MDx instrument (Promega, Madison, USA). In brief,
142
200 mg of fish muscle tissue was combined with 1000 µL CTAB lysis-buffer (AppliChem,
143
Darmstadt, Germany) and incubated under constant shaking (15 min, 65 °C). 40 µL
144
proteinase K (Promega) was added and samples again incubated (75 min, 65 °C). Solids were
145
pelleted afterwards by centrifugation (10 min, 16,000 rcf). 300 µL of sample supernatant was
146
loaded into a ‘Maxwell FFS Nucleic Acid Extraction System’ and combined with 300 µL
147
lysis buffer (Promega). DNA was extracted according to the manufacturer’s settings.
148
Extracted DNA was finally obtained in 100 µL elution buffer (Promega).
149
A ~650 bp fragment was amplified from the mitochondrial COI gene. The fish specific primer
150
pair cocktail COI-3 was used,41 the PCR protocol was modified by increasing the annealing
151
temperature to 53 °C. PCR reaction mix was prepared with ‘TaqMan Fast Universal PCR 7

152
Master Mix (2x)’ (Applied Biosciences, Foster City, USA) according to the manufacturer’s
153
specifications. PCR products were cleaned with a purification kit to remove surplus primer
154
and contaminations 2.357), the closest and all further relatives can be excluded as a
325
result when they are not available in the database (in case of a genetic similarity of >95%).
326
The applied threshold is now defined as 2.400. This formulated principle is applicable to the
327
data shown in
328
Table 4: even if M. molva is not available in the database, a safe species determination of B.
329
brosme is possible, as they share a genetic similarity of 2.400, when each being
335
compared with the other MSP.
336
Certain entries belong to genera that comprise many species, as the species of the genera
337
Coregonus, Oreochromis, or Sebastes. In addition, many species within those genera share
338
high genetic similarity. Even if all members of one genus are available in the database,
339
species differentiation is difficult due to their high similarities. Identification of such species
340
thus can only be made on the genus level, with the possibility of excluding some species with
341
lower genetic similarity (Supporting Information - Table S4).
342
In summary, closest relatives and their corresponding genetic similarities of all database
343
entries is determined for all database entries (Supporting Information - Table S5-S10).
344
Emphasis is placed on those entries sharing ≤95% to their closest relative (Table 1, marked *).
345
To exclude a close relative which is not in the database, a score of ≥2.400 is mandatory. This
346
threshold is feasible, as 83.9% of the tested validation samples exceed this value. If this
347
threshold is not exceeded, the result needs to respect the fact that a second species cannot be
348
excluded for certain.
349 350
Impact of bacterial contamination on fish identification. Food fish usually carry microbial
351
microflora.44–47 Observed bacterial cell numbers highly depend on storage conditions such as
352
cooling, freezing parameters, and storage time.44,46 In theory, the protein load resulting from
353
filet-borne bacteria may affect clear identification of the filet. To assess the impact of
354
bacterial proteins in the present study, Escherichia coli biomass is added to three different
355
fish filet samples, G. macrocephalus, Sander lucioperca, and Solea solea in a mass fraction of
356
~1% and ~10% (w/w). The added amounts correspond to an actual cell number of 9.08 x 109
357
(± 1.32 x 108) cells g-1 filet (~1%) and 6.70 x 1010 (± 1.97 x 109) cells g-1 filet (~10%). These 16
ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Page 17 of 36
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
358
test concentrations exceed reported bacterial concentrations in fish, which are mainly found in
359
a range of 101 to 108 cells g-1 filet. Only in particular cases like spoilage are bacterial numbers
360
up to 109 cells g-1 observed.47-50 Results show that the identification of the filet in the presence
361
of 1-2% E. coli is possible. Obtained scores do not show significant decreases in the scores of
362
reference samples (p95%
381
genetic similarity, thus showing little difference between scores) may be strengthened by the
382
search for species-specific protein masses, biomarkers, respectively, within spectra. Small 17
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
383
mass differences in protein spectra have little impact on the score differentiation. A detailed
384
(manual) observation of biomarker in the actual spectra will however enhance the reliability
385
of species differentiation. Initial tests are conducted on members of the genus Oncorhynchus
386
and Gadus (data not shown). The combination with additional techniques, as there is MS/MS,
387
may offer further analytical options in this context.
388
Higher eukaryotic organisms are characterized by differentiated tissue (in comparison to
389
single-cell bacteria or yeast). To a large extent, bacterial protein masses detected via MALDI
390
fingerprinting represent ribosomal proteins,51,52 and this may theoretically also be the case for
391
eukaryotic protein spectra. Nevertheless, a database should only refer to protein patterns
392
obtained from one type of tissue. Variation in protein patterns, generated from different types
393
of tissue is identified in the current study, where skin and muscle tissue (filet) are compared
394
(data not shown). A skin sample might still be identified as the correct fish species as top hit
395
when compared to a database comprising muscle tissue, however the score may be well below
396
2.000 (data not shown). Further studies supported the observation of variant spectra obtained
397
from different tissues of fish.36
