Gerhardt FIBRETHERM fibre analysis

Monday, 27 June, 2022 | Supplied by: Bio-Strategy - Part of DKSH Group


The Gerhardt FIBRETHERM fibre analysis automates the time-consuming and labour-intensive digestion and filtration processes for determining the various fibre fractions in grains, cereals and feedstuffs. It fully complies with the standard methods specified by Weender and van Soest.

The system enables the simultaneous processing of up to 12 samples, which can reduce energy and chemical consumption, and the laboratory time taken compared to the standard manual method. The analysis system automatically controls and monitors all of the boiling, washing and filtration processes within a single self-contained system and users have no direct contact with any chemicals to ensure maximum safety and productivity in the lab.

The method is based on the FibreBag technology developed by C. Gerhardt. This filtration technology can avoid the common problems associated with the classic filtration method using frits and filter beds, and it simplifies the handling and digestion of samples to help ensure fast, consistent and precise results.
