- - Feed - Mixed and finished feed including ruminant, swine, poultry plus concentrate, as well as plus ingredients such as oil seed meals, cereals and hulls & bran
Typical parameters analysed by the instrument include :
Moisture, Dry Matter, Fat, Protein, Lactose, Ash, Starch, Gluten. Peroxide value, Free fatty acids (FFA) Fibre, Ash and Connective Tissue.
Streamline food analysis: Using reference methods for NIR calibration
Food manufacturers must meet stringent regulatory and legal declaration requirements to remain competitive and ensure regulatory compliance. Proximate analysis has become the contemporary method for quantifying macronutrients in food and pet food, while also providing referenced methods for effective calibration of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy techniques, which can streamline workflows considerably and reduce costs.
In this free expert guide, explore a variety of technology solutions for the effective analysis of macronutrients to ensure that food and pet food products remain compliant.
