Tindakan pihak yang tidak bertanggungjawab dan merosakkan industri

Due to the high economic value of Edible birds Nest, irresponsible manufacturers often incorporated adulterants such as tremella fungus (Tremella fuciformisis), karaya gum (Sterculia urens), red seaweed, pig skin, egg white and vermicelli rice to increase the overall nett weight and size of the Edible birds nest. These compounds are used as adulterants due to the similarities in colour, taste and texture with the genuine bird’s nest salivary cement which is difficult to be detected by naked eyes.
