Rapid and Precise Protein and Carbon Analysis with the Elementrac CN-r According to Dumas

Protein analysis in the food sector is crucial for ensuring nutritional quality, accurate food labeling, and compliance with legal requirements. Additionally, it plays a significant role in quality control, product development, and cost control, thereby ensuring the integrity and nutritional value of the products. In the field of food analytics, the Elementrac CN-r, with its modern protein analysis technology, enables rapid and precise measurements within minutes and is also extremely user-friendly. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for environmentally and health-hazardous chemicals, significantly improving workplace safety.

In this webinar, you will learn about:

The advantages of the Dumas method over the classic Kjeldahl method
Benefits of the Elementrac CN-r to increase productivity in the lab while reducing workload
The operating principle of the CN-r
Suitable sample matrices for the CN-r
Which laboratories will benefit from switching to the Elementrac CN-r

Reproducible sample preparation for food analysis

Food occurs in different consistencies and is often inhomogeneous. For meaningful analysis, food laboratories require representative samples, which makes homogenization necessary as part of sample preparation. Ideally, this step should involve as little work as possible. The prepared subsample must represent both the laboratory sample and the initial sample. This would not be the case with an inhomogeneous sample, as some components of the initial sample could be over- or under-represented.

In this webinar you will learn more about:

Homogenization, standard deviation, correct analysis values
How do I find the optimal method for my sample
Cryogenic grinding (dry ice, liquid nitrogen)
Suitable laboratory mills for homogenizing foodstuffs
Live demos of selected mills
Application examples
Grain size determination using sieve analysis

Quick and easy sample preparation and analysis for food quality control

In the context of food analysis, microwave laboratory instruments can deliver precise results within minutes and are also extremely easy to operate. In addition, toxic, corrosive and environmentally hazardous chemicals can be dispensed with, which in turn significantly increases occupational safety..

Metalli pesanti e pesticidi negli alimenti altamente trasformati

La terza parte della serie di webinar si concentra sull'analisi. Ogni fase della lavorazione degli alimenti rappresenta una fonte di contaminazione, motivo per cui gli alimenti altamente lavorati (alimenti ultra-lavorati (UPF)) devono essere considerati in modo critico. I metalli pesanti vengono analizzati con ICP-MS e i pesticidi con GCMS/MS e SFC-LCMS/MS. Avete la possibilità di entrare in contatto con gli esperti del dispositivo e di discutere le vostre domande.

In questo webinar, potrete saperne di più su:

Come misurare i pesticidi in campioni difficili utilizzando LC-MS/MS e SFC-MS/MS
Determinazione di pesticidi in campioni alimentari mediante GC-MS/MS con idrogeno come gas di trasporto
Sfide e soluzioni per l'analisi dei metalli pesanti
Quanti metalli pesanti si nascondono nei prodotti alimentari di tendenza?
