Isoelectric focusing combined with specific enzyme staining for creatine kinase was used to characterize banding patterns in meat from pronghorn, mule deer, white-tailed deer, sheep, moose, pork, bison, elk, caribou, red deer, beef and goat. Processed and cooked pork was differentiated from all species and beef and elk were separated from pronghorn. It was not possible to differentiate beef from elk, or pronghorn from sheep. The inability to separate some game from some domestic species and the lability of the staining proteins after heating above 67 degrees C limits the application of this technique.
