Vegan Halal Food Inspection
We provide assurance through scientific testing for foods based on dietary cultures and religions such as veganism and halal.
For food manufacturers engaged in inbound demand and overseas expansion, it is essential to develop foods that cater to various cultures and religions. To provide assurance regarding this "diversity of food," our company offers testing services for plant-based foods and halal foods to confirm and certify their compliance. Point 1: Providing assurance to consumers through certification of the absence of animal-derived and pork-derived ingredients. We conduct confirmation and certification of plant-based and halal foods using a comprehensive approach that includes PCR methods, ELISA methods, and Western blotting, which are designated testing methods for food allergens. Point 2: Detection of pork-derived ingredients that cannot be identified by DNA through our proprietary technology. Generally, PCR methods (which detect DNA) are used to confirm and certify that pork-derived ingredients are not used in halal foods. However, this method is insufficient for detecting highly processed ingredients like gelatin. Our company has developed a testing technology that can specifically detect pork-derived collagen/gelatin, allowing us to identify pork gelatin that could not be detected previously.
basic information
◆Plant-Based Food Inspection The combination of the two tests below confirms that no animal-derived ingredients are used. ELISA Method: Detects characteristic proteins specific to eggs and milk through antigen-antibody reactions. PCR Method: Targets DNA characteristic of animals in general. ◆Pork-Derived Raw Material Inspection Pork-Derived DNA Test: Confirms the presence or absence of pork-derived DNA using the PCR method. Pork-Derived Gelatin Test: Confirms gelatin and collagen, which are difficult to detect with PCR, using the Western blot method.
