Abstract
The bovine growth hormone is a common growth promoter used in dairy farming to enhance the milk and meat production. However, the use of growth hormone is forbidden or limited in many countries. Hence, it is important to develop very sensitive, fast and low-cost methods of detection of bovine growth hormone. This paper reviews the current state of art of detection of growth hormone using conventional techniques, as well as the recent developments of lab-on-a-chip technologies and their benefits for the detection of bovine growth hormone in milk.
