| description | EBN (known in Chinese as Yan Wo, Indonesia as Sarang Walet, and Japanese as Enso) is the dried glutinous secretion of the salivary glands from Southern Asia swiftlets. Edible Bird’s Nest (EBN) was a significant item in the cuisine and pharmacy of the Emperors of China during the 16th century (Lau and Melville, 1994).

The EBN industry is a multimillion dollar enterprise as EBN is valued at USD 1600/kg and is one of the industries that are not affected by the global recession (Yeap, 2002). |
