Meat-ID

Coming soon

Every meat species verified or no animal DNA detected.

Meat-ID authenticates meat species in fresh, processed, and ready-to-eat products. The panel covers common, exotic, and prohibited species, and explicitly distinguishes "plant-only / no animal DNA" results from inconclusive tests.

What it is

A QAID-designed DNA microarray product: Meat-ID microarray slides, run in your own laboratory and analyzed in the QAID App.

Built for

Processed meats, ready meals, halal/kosher supply chains, plant-based product validation, and any program with species-substitution risk.

Why it stands out

Species-specific identification results with assay controls, designed to support audit and regulatory review — including an explicit "no animal DNA detected" result for plant-based claims.

QA problems QAID can flag

Undeclared species, downgrade substitution (premium → cheaper), cross-contamination, and animal-DNA presence in plant-based claims.

How results are analyzed

Microarray data are analyzed in the QAID App, using product-specific workflows and reference libraries. Access to the QAID App is by subscription.

What you need

QAID Meat-ID microarray slides, a compatible microarray scanner, and a QAID App subscription — with training and implementation support from QAID scientists.

Support available

Implementation, laboratory training, result interpretation and ongoing scientific support from QAID scientists, through QAID Training & Consulting.
