Delta LactoScope FTIR Milk Analyzer

The Delta LactoScope FTIR Milk Analyzer method is AOAC and IDF approved for the analysis of fat, protein, lactose and total solids in milk and dairy products.

The instrument features modern FTIR optics and simple-to-use but powerful software. The LactoScope FTIR is not limited to milk but can also be used to test other products such as cream, yoghurt and whey, thereby increasing its value and versatility. Typical products that can be analysed include milk, cream, whey, condensed (milk and cream), ice-cream mix, yoghurt mix, cheese milk, flavoured milk, UHT, WPC, milk payment samples and optionally, solid cheese.

Calibrations available include: butterfat, protein, lactose, total solids, SNF, added water, true protein, casein, NPN/calculated urea, free fatty acids, pH, citric acid, density and other carbohydrates.

Also available is the 3C Reference Standard which can be used to reduce how frequently the LactoScope FTIR Milk Analyzer will need to be recalibrated. The 3C Solution is used monthly in place of reference standard sets. It reduces the amount of calibration maintenance needed and standardises all calibrations on an instrument. Operators simply analyse the 3C Solution and the LactoScope user software automatically calculates any required adjustments.
