<![CDATA[Meat counterfeiting and mislabeling are important issues, especially for Muslim consumers who need halal assurance. One of the techniques used to detect pork contamination in meat products is the enzyme-linked immunosorbent test (ELISA). This method allows for the detection of specific and sensitive antigens in food samples. ELISA relies on antigen-antibody interactions to identify pork counterfeits in a variety of raw and processed meat products. Studies show that ELISA can detect pork contamination as low as 0.01-5% (w/w) in beef and poultry. The advantages of ELISA include sensitivity, specificity, quantitative, and ease of operation, making it a relevant method for the detection of pork mixing in meat products. Therefore, ELISA plays an important role as a tool for halal food surveillance and authentication of meat products in the global market.
