title: Differentiation of raw meat from phylogenically related species by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
abstract: A method, based on enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), has been developed for differentiating raw meat from closely related species of economic importance. By visual assessment 0·1% donkey in horse, 0·1% goat in sheep and 1% buffalo in beef may be detected. The technique is rapid and simple to perform and could be used in abattoirs and coldstores with results being available within 1 h.
