Lateral flow devices (LFDs) are straightforward scientific tools that have made substantial advances in recent years. They have been used in many fields including the meat industry to detect disease markers, determine meat freshness or meat species determination. They are, therefore, significant in the research of meat adulteration by mixed animal species, because food component authenticity is a serious concern encompassing health, economic, legal, and religious issues. Pork adulteration is one of the most crucial issues in the global meat industry. In this review, we discuss the various types of LFDs and recent research on the development of LFDs as an authenticity tool for detecting pig additives in meat-based products, and how regulatory authorities could adopt LFDs for their workflows. Despite the benefits of rapidity, simplicity, low cost, high sensitivity, and specificity, researchers face challenges when using LFD as a final confirmation test. Future directions are suggested for globalising the use of LFD as a halal authentication method.
侧向流检测设备（LFD）是一种简单的科学工具，近年来取得了重大进展。它们已被广泛应用于多个领域，包括肉类行业，用于检测疾病标志物、确定肉类的新鲜度或肉类种类。因此，它们在研究混合动物物种的肉类掺假方面具有重要意义，因为食品成分的真实性是一个涉及健康、经济、法律和宗教等方面的严重问题。猪肉掺假是全球肉类行业中最关键的问题之一。在这篇综述中，我们讨论了各种类型的 LFD 以及最近关于将 LFD 作为一种真实性工具开发的研究，用于检测肉类产品中的猪添加剂，以及监管机构如何将 LFD 应用于其工作流程。尽管 LFD 具有快速、简单、低成本、高灵敏度和特异性的优点，但研究人员在将 LFD 用作最终确认测试时仍面临挑战。本文还为将 LFD 用作清真认证方法的全球化提出了未来的发展方向。
