An immunochromatographic detection of myoglobin (MG) as a specific marker of porcine muscle tissue has been developed. The method is based on the sandwich lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as a label. The developed test system determines MG with a detection limit of 5 ng mL−1 within 15 min. A specific determination of porcine MG and no cross-reactivity with MG from other tested mammals and bird species was demonstrated. The test system is able to detect pork additives, as low as 0.01% (w/w), in minced beef. A technique of MG extraction from muscle tissue has been proposed which allows for rapid and efficient MG extraction from meat samples (within 20 min). The developed test system can serve as an effective means of controlling the authenticity and quality of meat products.
