CERAPOR – Porcine Detection Kit

An Innovation by Indonesian Researchers for Product Safety and Halal Compliance

Real-Time PCR (rt-PCR) Kit for Porcine DNA Detection

Sensitive in vitro detection of porcine DNA using real-time PCR method

The CERAPOR kit is designed and validated to detect the presence of porcine DNA in food samples using real-time PCR. Porcine DNA fragments will be amplified and detected as the fluorescence signal increases in the SYBR Green or FAM channel during the amplification cycle.

Applications for Porcine DNA Detection

This kit is specifically designed for various stakeholders in the food industry, including food manufacturers, food regulatory authorities, and analytical laboratories, to ensure compliance with food safety and labeling regulations. It enables the detection of porcine DNA in a wide range of food products, including raw meat, processed food, and complex food matrices such as sausages, canned goods, seasonings, and gelatin-based products. This kit is particularly useful for halal and kosher certification bodies, as well as for quality control in food production and supply chain management.

Porcine DNA Detection Capability (Minimal Detection Limit)

The real-time PCR (rt-PCR) kit offers highly sensitive detection capabilities, allowing the identification of porcine DNA at extremely low concentrations. It can accurately detect porcine DNA at a minimum level of 1 copy DNA/μL, ensuring precise and reliable results even in trace amounts. This level of sensitivity is crucial for detecting unintended contamination in food products, making it an essential tool for laboratories conducting food authenticity testing, allergen control, and fraud prevention in the food supply chain.

Cross-Reactivity (Technical Specificity)

The specificity of this real-time PCR (rt-PCR) kit has been rigorously tested to ensure accurate detection of porcine DNA without cross-reactivity with other animal species. It does not produce false-positive results when tested against DNA from other meats, such as beef, chicken, lamb, or fish, as well as their processed derivatives. This high level of specificity makes the kit a reliable choice for food safety testing, ensuring compliance with dietary restrictions, religious requirements, and food authenticity verification.
