Analysis of gelatin adulteration in edible bird’s nest using fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy
Fraudulent incorporation of cheaper materials such as porcine gelatin into edible bird’s nest (EBN) can become a problem for reasons related to religious, allergy, ethical, and legal requirement. Thus, the present study aimed to detect porcine gelatin in the processed EBNs by using a combination met...

| Summary: | Fraudulent incorporation of cheaper materials such as porcine gelatin into edible bird’s nest (EBN) can become a problem for reasons related to religious, allergy, ethical, and legal requirement. Thus, the present study aimed to detect porcine gelatin in the processed EBNs by using a combination method of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and chemometrics analysis, Principal Component Analysis (PCA). In the evaluation of the spiked samples, this method was able to detect at least 5% of porcine gelatin in EBNs. This method would be advantageous for quality control in the EBN industry. |
