Abstract
Specific and sensitive assays for immunoglobulin G in pork, chicken, a nd beef were developed using polyester cloths coated with respective a nti-immunoglobulin G antibodies. The captured immunoglobulin G protein s were detected by their reactions with the respective IgG antibody ho rseradish peroxidase conjugates and a chromogenic peroxidase substrate . This sensitive assay takes only 30 minutes and can detect the adulte ration of ground meats.
