PerkinElmer LactoScope 300 FT-IR analyser

The PerkinElmer LactoScope 300 FT-IR analyser enables users to quickly and easily analyse important nutritional information about liquid dairy products as well as to search for any abnormalities within them.

The product is able to detect important factors in dairy products such as fat, protein and lactose levels, enabling producers to keep track of the nutritional profiles of milk, cream and whey.

It is also capable of detecting adulterants such as urea, ammonium sulfate, maltodextrine, sucrose and water in raw and processed milks.

The system has a touch-screen and simplified software interfaces to enable ease of use. Liquids samples can be quickly placed into the instrument and analysed with the push of a button. The results will be displayed on the product’s 12-inch display within 45 seconds; the number of analyses done per hour is therefore around 60.

The system is cloud-based, enabling remote access and reporting, and giving users the ability to access the results when not physically at the site of analysis.
