You can still DNA test cooked meat according to a UCDavis FAQ. Sure itll denature at a pointbut I think you guys are jumping the gun here. Of course, the test I linked isnt for fish.
reading about it, apparently you can extract DNA from cooked meat, but it takes special techniques and there are papers on particular ways that you can go about it. the link you provided says that they can only distinguish between 12 specific different mammals.

so if they can't identify tuna, I would highly expect their test is insufficient and/or the amount of DNA is insufficient. not that the tuna is some unidentifiable substance that is something other than meat.
