Boar taint is an unpleasant odour of pork which can be prevented by the castration of pigs. Due to animal welfare concern, a ban on pig castration will be introduced in 2018 in Europe. This will lead to a dramatic increase in tainted carcasses entering food chain and associated economic losses. The applicants in collaboration with industry developed a prototype of a unique cost-effective technology for on-line detection of boar taint; undertook extensive market evaluation; filed a European patent application and identified potential licensees. The technology has been further improved following industry feedback and validated on meat samples against the "gold standard". However, the industry is not prepared to progress licensing negotiations until the technological aspects are fully addressed and the technology is evaluated in abattoir setting. This project will close the technology "gaps", evaluate the technology in industrial setting and facilitate the technology commercialisation.

野猪污染是猪肉的一种令人不愉快的气味，可以通过猪的cast割来预防。由于关注动物福利，将在2018年在欧洲引入对猪cast割的禁令。这将导致进入食物链和相关经济损失的污染尸体的急剧增加。申请人与行业合作开发了一种独特的成本效益技术的原型，用于在线检测野猪污染。进行广泛的市场评估；提出了欧洲专利申请并确定了潜在的被许可人。行业反馈后，该技术已进一步改进，并根据“黄金标准”对肉类样本进行了验证。但是，在完全解决了技术方面并在屠场环境中评估技术之前，该行业不准备进行许可谈判。该项目将弥合技术“差距”，评估工业环境中的技术并促进技术商业化。
