DEVELOPMENT OF A PORCINE-SPECIFIC DNA MARKER IN SINGLE-TUBE LYOPHILIZED FORMAT

VIEW INFOGRAPHICS

Research

PCR METHOD HAS BEEN WIDELY USED FOR SPECIES DETECTION INCLUDING WIDELY KNOWN COVID19 TESTING AND IN THE CASE OF HALAL AUTHENTICATION, PORCINE DNA DETECTION. THE PROJECT FOCUS ON COMBINING PORCINE-SPECIFIC PCR PRIMERS AND PROBE THAT ARE THE CRUCIAL ELEMENTS IN PCR IN A SINGLE TUBE AND IN LYOPHILIZED FORM. THE OPTIMIZED FORMULATION IN LYOPHILIZED FORM WOULD REDUCE ERROR WHILE PREPARING THE REACTION MIXTURE, PROMOTE HIGHLY EFFICIENT LABORATORY SKILL AND EASY TRANSPORT AND STORAGE WHILE MAINTAINING ITS PERFORMANCE.

BEE-YOND AUTHENTICATION: KPRIX QUALITY MEETS SALMAH VALIDATION

VIEW INFOGRAPHICS

IP

OVER EIGHT YEARS OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH INTEGRATING FOOD CHEMISTRY, METABOLOMICS, BEE ECOLOGY, AND PLANT SCIENCES HAS LED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE KELULUT PURITY & QUALITY INDEX (KPRIX) — A SCIENTIFICALLY VALIDATED FRAMEWORK FOR ASSESSING STINGLESS BEE HONEY QUALITY. KPRIX PARAMETERS ENCOMPASS SUGAR COMPOSITION, ANTIOXIDANT CAPACITY, ORGANIC ACIDS, MINERALS, MICROBIOTA, AND INDICATORS OF ADULTERATION, FORMING THE FOUNDATION FOR TRANSLATIONAL STUDIES UNDER THE SALMAH PROJECT (STINGLESS BEE HONEY ACTIVE LEAD COMPOUNDS WITH MEASURABLE EFFECTS IN ANTI‑DIABETIC HUMAN PRE‑CLINICAL STUDY). THE SALMAH TRIAL EVALUATES THE EFFECTS OF HONEY WITH VARYING KPRIX SCORES IN PREDIABETIC PARTICIPANTS ON GLYCEMIC AND METABOLIC OUTCOMES. TOGETHER, THESE INITIATIVES BRIDGE ECOSYSTEM‑BASED HONEY PROFILING WITH HUMAN HEALTH VALIDATION, ADVANCING MALAYSIA’S LEADERSHIP IN HALAL FUNCTIONAL FOOD INNOVATION. SUPPORTED BY NPRA PRE‑CLINICAL APPROVAL AND JAKIM HALAL CERTIFICATION, THIS INTEGRATED RESEARCH PIPELINE DEMONSTRATES A MODEL FOR SUSTAINABLE, EVIDENCE‑BASED COMMERCIALISATION OF STINGLESS BEE HONEY.
