Analytik Jena - an EndressHauser Company training

The industrial production is a big challenge for the chemical and biological analysis of consumer products such as beverages. Along the long production chain, a lot of potential contamination can happen. The food industry has to put a lot of effort into establishing quality control and safety analysis mechanisms. The industry needs methods that are reliable, economically viable and integrate naturally into the chain of production. Which methods of analysis can do that? In this web seminar Analytik Jena is highlighting analytical methods for the reliable and efficient determination of various elements, elemental species, TOC (Total organic Carbon), CO₂ from wine, beer, water and juice samples. There are also solutions for the determination of some quality criteria like color. Next to the chemical analysis portfolio, Analytik Jena will be presenting some molecular/biological analysis solutions for modern day QC labs as well.

Food and feed authenticity and safety is an ever-current topic which significance has increased with global trading routs and complex sourcing strategies. The results of food fraud range from deception of end customers, mislabeling, lower product quality, food imitation, economic losses, religious and ethical concerns to medical issues for the end-user. To protect consumer interest’s, food authenticity is checked in regard to claimed properties, purity, origin and production. Current approaches include physical-chemical methods, molecular biology, isotope analysis and substance profiling. Through this the species and GMO content can be confirmed.
