Oxidized lipid enhances peroxidation of membrane macromolecules, thus
contributing to the mutagenicity, genotoxicity, and angiotoxicity (Jaswir, et al.,
JAOCS, 1998)
Major Findings
• Replacement of wet chemical analyses
with the instrumental-based ones
• Stability of Frying Oils during Processing
and Storage
• Exploration of Natural Antioxidants from
Local Sources
• “Gateway” to Halal Science

Global Halal Industry and
Food Security
 Halal business - lucrative industry and huge
opportunities for domestic and international trade, e.g.
Nestle -154 halal-certified range stretches from culinary
products to beverages, dairy, chocolates and sports and
infants nutrition products
 Demand for halal food and other Islamic consumer
goods is expected to proliferate in the coming years
 Currently, ~ 2.0 billion Muslims
 Growing demand not only from Muslims but also others
wishing for extra security on food safety and quality

Issues in Halal Industry
• Halal food concept is simple; however, the industry is
becoming more complex
• Due to breathtaking technological development today
and the diversification of sources acquired globally for
food processing and production, numerous number of
processed food are available in the market
• It is increasingly difficult for Muslims during this
challenging times to ensure the halal status of food in
the market
• This trend has raised concerns among Muslim
consumers regarding new processed food and other
consumer products

Potential Critical Areas







Raw materials – animal or plant origin
Slaughtering – stunning and thoracic sticking issues
I
Processing operations/equipment – cross-contamination
Packaging/Storage/Transportation (logistic issues)
Food ingredients and additives
 Pig and its by-products (e.g. pork, lard, gelatin)
 Enzymes (e.g rennet, pepsin)
 Emulsifiers (e.g. E471/E472 or mono- & diglycerides)
 Intoxicants (alcoholic beverages, drugs)
 Blood
Genetically modified food
Safety and quality aspects
Food Adulteration
 Adulteration is an issue of major quality concern in the
food trade and industry globally
 Adulteration involving the replacement of costly
ingredients with inferior and cheaper substitutes are
common practice in many countries
 Adulteration of food products can be very attractive and
lucrative for food manufacturers or raw material
suppliers, e.g. melamine adulteration issue in infant
formula
 Adulteration of any non-halal/hazardous component in
halal food render the food become non-halal or haram
Cont…
Many cases were reported worldwide involving
adulteration of haram or shubhah ingredients (especially
porcine-based products) in halal food, e.g.,
• In Malaysia, issues on non-halal moon cakes, sausages
using non-halal casing, haram fish, etc.
• In U.K., Food Standards Agency conducted test for
authenticity of chicken in the market - found pig and
cattle DNA in halal-labelled chicken
• In Indonesia, the episodes on ‘Pig Fat Scare’, and food
ingredient MSG adulterated with enzyme derived from
pig
¿
HALAL
Challenges for Compliance to Halal
and Quality Requirements
■ To comply with halal requirement, more stringent
auditing/monitoring system is needed by Halal
Authorities such as JAKIM
■ Reliable state-of-the-art scientific methods are
required for analysis of non-halal components (e.g
porcine origin, alcohol) in halal food
■ Analytical techniques become major challenge for
authentication of halal food
FTIR Spectroscopy
• Spectroscopy is the study of the interaction of EMR
with matter
• IR has been used to provide information on the
molecular composition and structure of a diverse
range of materials
• Samples (e.g. oils and fats, gelatin) could be
analyzed to identify the differences in FTIR spectra
profiles, hence the sources of origin
