1. Lokman Hekim University Halal Product Application and Research Center

Halal is a concept that includes products that are healthy and safe to apply within the framework of the rules of the Islamic religion. Therefore, the Halal market is developing rapidly in Muslim as well as non-Muslim societies. One of the most important features of this market is that it includes a variety of different sectors such as food, beverage, tourism, textile and pharmaceuticals. The Halal pharmaceutical industry is perhaps one of the most challenging sectors in terms of application and research.

To guarantee they do not consume or utilize non-halal goods or services, Muslim customers need Halal certification for pharmaceutical products too. The producers and Halal certification bodies should reassure Muslim customers that all circulating products and services are really Halal. Lokman Hekim University Halal Product Application and Research Center (LHUHAC) is a rapidly developing scientific-based research and application center established in 2021 at Lokman Hekim University.

One of the aims of LHUHAC is to examine the issues within the concept of Halal with scientific rigor to produce practical and applicable solutions. Accordingly, the aim of this oral presentation is to scientifically examine the challenges in the Halal pharmaceutical industry and propose realistic solutions.
