Interactive demonstrations about food & beverage

Are you interested in the latest trends and innovative analysis techniques surrounding food? Then follow the X-pedition “Trending Topics in Food & Beverage” during the WoTS. In a very practical way, through a tour of 6 participating companies, each of which provides an interactive demonstration, the X-pedition offers information on current topics such as NMR analyzers, SPE, pathogen detection and NIR spectroscopy. 

Measuring the fat and oil in dried snacks is essential for quality control. At the stand of Salm and Kipp you will receive a demo of the MQC+ NMR analyzer from Oxford Instruments. It analyzes quickly and easily without sample pre-processing.

NIR spectroscopy is a non-destructive, rapid screening technique for detecting food fraud in herbs and spices and does not affect the integrity of the sample. During the X-pedition Perkin Elmer a Spectrum Two N FT-NIR spectrometer system on the stand where this application can be followed live.

Gilson shows the analysis of color additives in food via SPE. In this application shown, the AOAC method 988.13 is automated using the Gilson GX274 ASPEC. The ASPEC provides the complete method using SPE and processes four samples in parallel to later analyze the additives with UV/Vis spectrometry.

Major improvements to your product can be found in very small differences. At the stand of Beckman Coulter you see the LS 13 320 XR. The XR analyzer delivers accurate and fast results so that the workflow is optimized and the quality of the product is guaranteed.

Merck With Biocontrol, is a specialist in the field of rapid detection methods for micro-organisms in food microbiology. Key points are pathogen detection (Salmonella, Listeria, etc.) using the GDS and hygiene monitoring using the MVP ICON.

At the stand of JSB you will receive an explanation of the analysis methods including HPLC-GC-FID and GCxGC-MS for quantifying and qualifying various co-eluting hydrocarbon contaminants. The MOSH MOAH specialist Dr. Sebastian Saeger present to answer your questions.

Your knowledge is tested by being asked a question at each stand. When you answer these questions, you will receive a suitable present. The opportunity to increase your knowledge of analysis in nutritional research!

The X-pedition has a connection to it seminar Trending Topics in Food & Beverage that will be organized on Thursday, October 4 between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM.
