Bruker Optik GmbH (Ettlingen/Germany)

"MPA/LSM analyzer system."

Spectroscopic methods have long been used in laboratories of the milk processing industry, where FT-IR and NIR systems are indispensable for quality and process control. The combination of the FT-NIR instrument MPA and the innovative sample module LSM for liquid samples presented by Bruker Optik combines and expands the measuring possibilities in one system. This not only provides a more cost-effective solution, but also enables the analysis of samples that could not previously be analyzed with FT-IR and in this form with other NIR instruments. The LSM is an innovation in the foreground: it includes a homogenizer for optimum and reproducible measurement of raw milk and whey and a peristaltic pump connected in parallel for conveying all kinds of liquid dairy products and intermediate products. In addition, the MPA allows the analysis of all other solid and semi-solid dairy products, mainly in reflection, transflection or diffuse transmission.
