Benchtop NMR Spectroscopy on liquid food samples

Quality control is a constant challenge in food science and technology. High resolution proton NMR spectroscopy has been extensively used to characterize liquid foodstuffs, but due to the high cost of large superconducting NMR systems these methods have largely been limited to research labs. The Spinsolve benchtop NMR spectrometer can be used to analyse commercial liquid food samples. It is worth noting that NMR can measure samples that are cloudy, coloured or bubbly, and does not require the traditional sample...

NMR Spectrometer solutions for the reaction monitoring sector

NMR reaction monitoring is an excellent technique for determining reaction kinetics as well as reaction end points. The measurements are quantitative with only minimal calibration. The signal has a linear response to concentration and it is generally not sensitive to the matrix. The measurement is of the complete sample and is non-destructive. The Spinsolve high-resolution benchtop NMR spectrometer can be installed directly in the fume hood of a chemistry lab to monitor the progress of chemical reactions...

Laboratory equipments for well log calibration

Down-hole NMR tools are routinely run during the oil and gas exploration process and provide valuable information to the reservoir engineers. The tools measure T2 distribution as a function of depth. T2 can be directly related to pore size and with the correct T2 cut-off can allow the determination of bound fluid versus free fluid in the reserve. These values can then be used to estimate recoverable reserves.

Laboratory equipments for fat & oil in food

Measuring Fat and Oil in Food using the MQC Benchtop NMR Analyser. Fat and oil in food play a key role in determining the nutritional value, product quality and consumer appeal of the products in which they are incorporated. Routine and accurate measurement of the fat and oil in food is also necessary to ensure that products are in compliance with labelling statements.

Laboratory equipments for total fat in chocolates

Measuring Total Fat in Chocolate using Benchtop NMR MQC Analyser. The measurement of total fat in chocolate is extremely important within the chocolate industry, a major segment of the global confectionary industry. The essential part of consumer appeal of chocolate is its quality and consistency. The key ingredient of chocolate is the cocoa bean, a natural product which varies depending on growing environment, storage and processing.

Laboratory equipments for pore throat distribution & wettability

Having obtained a Pc curve, pore throat distributions can now be calculated using the Washburn equations. The imbibition and secondary drainage curves generated by the NMR Pc measurement also allow USBM wettability to be predicted. Both of these calculations are integrated into the software, and follow as a natural consequence of the NMR Pc data. A further added advantage is that the NMR measurement is non-destructive and can use reservoir fluids and reservoir wettability.

Laboratory equipments for fluorine in industrial & construction waste

Measuring Fluorine in Industrial and Construction Waste using Benchtop NMR MQC Analyser. Processing and recycling of industrial and construction waste often requires measuremetns of fluorine content in the materials. It mostly relates to monitoring potential emission of toxic fluorine gas and optimisation of the waste processing. Our benchtop NMR analyser MQC systems provide a fast, simple and accurate method of measuring fluorine in liquid and dry waste. The NMR technique does not require the use of any chemicals...

Laboratory instrumentation solutions for the food science industry

Relaxometry has long been used in food science to determine the solid fat content (SFC), moisture content, etc. Not only can the NMReady perform these fundamental experiments, but, in addition, the option to measure high-resolution 1D 1H NMR acquisition can provide additional invaluable information through speciation (e.g., amount of saturated and unsaturated fats, cis/trans olefin conformations, % carbohydrates). qNMR QA/QC methods are also possible to validate product claims (e.g., carbohydrate content, alcohol...

Laboratory equipments for Solid Fat Content (SFC)

Measuring Solid Fat Content (SFC) using the Benchtop NMR MQC Analyser. The measurement of solid fat content (SFC) within the baking, confectionary and margarine industries is crucial as fats are a key component in many processed foodstuffs produced within these industries. Fats are complex ingredients which play a key role in nutrition and consumer appeal of products. Measurement of solid fat content (SFC) is the industry standard approach to understanding the melting behaviour of edible oils and fats. The reason...

Laboratory equipments for fluid typing

GeoSpec2 instruments fitted with Pulsed Field Gradients (pfg) are able to carry out measurements dependent on the diffusion, flow, or distribution of the fluids within the core sample. One application is for fluid typing. It is possible that different fluids, such as heavy oils and partially bound water, may exhibit similar T2 values, which makes it difficult to identify which fluid is which using a standard T2 distribution. However, even if they have similar T2 values they are unlikely also to have similar...
