    The Food Safety Authority of Ireland reported yesterday （Tuesday, 15 January） that an analysis they carried out into the authenticity, or labelling accuracy, of a number of burger products revealed that some contained horse and pig DNA.

    In particular, 27 beefburger products were analysed, with 10 of the 27 products （37%） testing positive for horse DNA and 23 （85%） testing positive for pig DNA. In nine of the ten beefburger samples, horse DNA was found at very low levels. In one sample from Tesco, the level of horse DNA indicated that horse meat was present and accounted for approximately 29% of the total meat content of the burger.

    All of the retailers involved so far have removed potentially affected products from their shelves.
