Description
An ELISA-based method used for the detection of ultra-low levels of raw meats (cow, horse, pig, poultry and sheep) in uncooked food products. All are semi-quantitative and enable the important differentiation of cross-contamination (0.1 - 0.5% w/w) from adulteration (1.0 - 5.0% w/w).
The semi-quantitative Pig-Check™ ELISA for raw pork can detect and accurately determining raw pork contents in mixtures containing less than 0.1% (LOD, 0.02% w/w) of lean meats, fatty tissues or mixtures of both. When the sample extract is diluted higher levels can also be determined, thereby combining the benefits of ultra-low-level detection (to rival PCR) and higher level (% w/w) screening for meat adulteration. The Raw Pig-Check™ ELISA is also suitable for monitoring of surface residues for cleaning validation and verification studies.
The Raw Meat Species kits have been formatted and refined for ease-of-use to aid in resolution of species content. They are designed to enable labs to analyse raw meat species content in order to meet or exceed relevant guidelines and legislation. A rigorous in-house validation has been conducted to support their performance.
