1. A method for determining an original animal species in a sample liable to contain an ingredient obtained from at least said species, characterized in that:

  • a) a nucleic acid fraction obtained from said sample is provided, b) at least one reagent specific for the animal species is provided, chosen from the group consisting of the reference sequences SEQ ID Nos 1 to 232, and Nos 242 to 261, the sequences complementary to each of the sequences SEQ ID Nos 1 to 232, and Nos 242 to 261, respectively, the complementarity meaning any sequence capable of hybridizing, at a temperature of between 20 and 70°

    C., in saline solution at a concentration of approximately 0.5 to 1 M, with any one of the sequences SEQ ID Nos 1 to 232, and Nos 242 to 261, the sequences homologous to each of the sequences SEQ ID Nos 1 to 232, and Nos 242 to 261 and of the sequences complementary to each of the sequences SEQ ID Nos 1 to 232, and Nos 242 to 261, respectively, the homology meaning any sequence, for example fragment, comprising a series of at least 5 contiguous nucleotides included in any one of said sequences, and exhibiting at least 70% identity with said any sequence, c) the nucleic acid fraction and said reagent are brought into contact, and d) any signal or item of information resulting from the specific reaction between said reagent and the nucleic acid fraction, characterizing the presence in said sample of said original animal species, is determined by means of detection.
