Analysis of Dairy Powders Using the DA 7250 NIR

Analysis of dairy powders with high accuracy for the constituents by means of the PerkinElmer DA 7250, a proven NIR instrument designed for use in the food industry. Using novel diode array technology it performs a multi-component analysis in less than ten seconds with no sample preparation.

Butter - DA 7250

Analysis of fat, moisture and salt is of great importance to butter plants. By accurately controlling these constituents the producer can experience significant savings. Using the DA 7250, production staff can perform their own analysis 24/7 and have instant access to the results. The results can be used for process optimization and to avoid costly mistakes and potential penalties.

Analysis of Ice Cream Mix for Fat and Total Solids Content

Accurate control of butterfat and total solids in ice cream mix affects both quality and profitability. The combination of butterfat and total solids affects texture thereby impacting quality and mouth-feel. The DA 7250 can accurately analyze ice cream mix for fat and solids content. The speed of analysis allows users to easily and accurately analyze many samples a day in nearly real time.

Sweetened Condensed Milk - DA 7250

Sweetened Condensed Milk (SCM) is an important ingredient for many products. The total solids, fat, and sucrose quantities are key to proper performance as an ingredient. Correct quantities impart both functional and flavor characteristics. The DA 7250 NIR analyzer can provide precise, repeatable and representative results in seconds.

Youghurt - DA 7250

For yoghurtmanufacturers, fat and dry matter contents are important quality parameters that define properties of the end product. With a large number of samples, high sample throughput and accurate determination of these parameters is of great benefit. The DA 7250 can analyze yogurt in less than 10 seconds with high accuracy. Even including inhomogeneous samples with fruit pieces and without the need to clean sample cups, vials, tubes or similar in between measurements.

The Elemental Analysis of Milk Powder with NexION 300/350 ICP-MS

This work demonstrates the ability of PerkinElmer’s ICP-MS to effectively measure macro-level nutritional elements in the same analysis run as lower-level elements,without having to dilute the samples. The agreement between experimental and certified results for NIST® 1549 Milk Powder demonstrates the accuracy of the analysis. Instrument design characteristics eliminate deposition on the ion optics, leading to long-term stability in high-matrix samples, while permitting trace levels to be accurately measured.

Cheese - DA 7250

Analysis of moisture, fat, protein, salt and pH is of great importance to cheese plants. By accurately controlling these constituents, the producer can experience significant savings and ensure product quality. The availability of fast results allows for process optimization and to avoid costly mistakes and potential penalties. The DA 7250 NIR analyzer can analyze cheese for moisture, fat, salt, protein and pH with high accuracy in only 6 seconds.

Dairy Powders - DA 7250

The Near Infrared Reflectance (NIR) technique is particularly suited for measurement of dairy powders. In this work the DA 7250 shows very accurate and reproducible results when compared to the results from the reference methods.
