Bruker’s MPA II Dairy Analyzer with the software controlled Liquid Sampling Module (LSM II) sets a new standard in routine QC for the analysis of liquid and solid samples.
FT-NIR Analysis of Milk & Dairy Products
Bruker's MPA II Dairy Analyzer sets a new standard for quality control and analysis of liquid and solid samples in the dairy industry with the software-controlled Liquid Sampling Module (LSM II). With homogenizer and peristaltic pump, the LSM II has two options for sample delivery including automated cleaning cycles and visible tubing for easy inspection. The modular concept is based on Bruker's MPA II FT-NIR instrument.
Transmission measurement through a thermostatted quartz flow cell with 1mm (1,000μm) path length for all liquids. The maintenance free design shows no cuvette wear over time. Viscous samples like concentrates can be pumped through easily, even if they contain small particles or sugar crystals.
Reflection analysis for all solid and semi-solid sample forms with the integrating sphere in sample cups for powder samples and for semi-solids in disposable polystyrene or alternatively glass or quartz Petri dishes. The sample is rotated during analysis to obtain the average result from a larger sample volume.
The Liquid Sampling Module LSM II allows the automated sampling and homogenizing (if required) for analyzing milk and various liquid products:
Raw, skim, processed and condensed milk
Whey, UF whey and whey concentrate
Cream
Whey protein and lactose concentrates
Milk drinks and flavored milk
Ice Cream, liquid desserts and yoghurts
Infant formula liquids & premixes
