Abstract

The complete bleeding in slaughtering animals is closely related to the halalness of the meat. This study aims to describe the completeness of blood drains in discarded laying hens carcasses sold at traditional markets in Banda Aceh City. The research samples were nine chicken carcasses bought from three traditional markets, i.e., Peunayong, Ule Kareng, and Seutui (three samples from each market). The study used a cross-sectional method to test the perfect carcass bleeding with the Malachite Green (MG) test in the form of seeing changes in the color of the solution. The results showed that all samples changed color from green to dark blue. A perfectly slaughtered chicken will not find hemoglobin in the chicken carcass, causing O₂ to oxidize malachite green to a dark blue, indicating that the slaughtering and bleeding occurred completely. In conclusion, the carcasses of discarded laying hens sold in the traditional markets of Peunayong, Ule Kareng, and Seutui are halal.
