From Farm to Fork - From Sample to Result
innuDETECT food analysis solutions
13 Nov 2017In order to reach sufficient results, including highest standards, as well as reproducibility and precision, molecular biology brought to the lab by workflow solutions and aligned chemistry offer an alternative to traditional protocols in food authenticity testing and microbiology. Within food analysis and testing there is one common challenging requirement: sample preparation. Dual-Chemistry-(DC-) Technology® by Analytik Jena provides an innovative platform that proves itself through superior chemistry.

UV-Visible SpectroscopyUltraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometers are used to measure the interaction of UV and visible light with a sample, including transmission, reflectance & absorbance. The two major instrument classes are single-beam or double-beam spectrophotometers. More specialized equipment includes colorimeters, spectroradiometers and refractometers. Portable and microvolume spectrophotometers are also available. For the modular spectroscopy lab, explore a range of light sources for combination with a spectrograph/spectrometer and optics. Find the best UV-Vis spectroscopy products in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.

Typical instrumentation includes blanchers, color sorters, cookers, grinders, and refrigeration. These are used to replicate the processes commonly used in the commercial preparation of food and beverages.Sample PreparationSample preparation can improve the quality and speed of separation techniques. Products to assist sample preparation include filtration equipment, evaporators, membranes and sieves.DNA ExtractionDNA extraction is a critical step in many biological studies, including genomics, diagnostics, and forensic analysis. The process involves isolating DNA from cells or tissues, and the quality and purity of the extracted DNA can impact downstream applications. Explore DNA extraction products in our peer-reviewed product directory; compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.Food AuthenticationFood authentication ensures that food products are accurately labeled and free from adulteration or misrepresentation. This is important for consumer safety, quality control, and regulatory compliance.
