This Standard specifies minimum requirements of performance characteristics for the detection of nucleic acid sequences (DNA or RNA) by molecular methods such as PCR and different post-PCR detection methods, real-time PCR, digital PCR, isothermal amplification, single and/or multiple probebased detection techniques as well as the combination of such methods including sequencing techniques (DNA barcoding). The document applies to the detection, identification and quantification of animal species (chordata) or higher and lower taxonomic groups in foodstuffs.
