Dionex App Note 270: Determination of Hydroxymethylfurfural in Honey and Biomass
15 February, 2011 | Dionex Pty Ltd
Dionex has published a new high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAE-PAD)-based method for the determination of hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) in samples ranging from food (honey and pancake syrup) to treated biomass (corn stover and wood hydrolysate). HMF is naturally found in many foods (eg, honey) and can increase during cooking or processing. The concentration of HMF can indicate food quality and authenticity and some countries have proposed limits to its content in food.

Romer Labs food allergen test kits
15 February, 2011 | Intermed
Food allergies and intolerances affect a significant proportion of the population. As a result, food manufacturers are required to declare the presence of the major food allergens in their product such as peanuts, gluten and soy. Also, manufacturers are increasingly creating new products that specifically do not contain certain ingredients; for example, there has been an explosion of gluten-free products coming onto the market in recent years. The presence of undeclared allergens in food products is not only a potential danger to the consumer but also a leading cause of food recalls, which are costly in terms of both dollars and brand image.

Geelen counterflow dryers and coolers
07 January, 2011 | Furnace Engineering Pty Ltd
Geelen counterflow dryers and coolers exclusively use the counterflow principle which is claimed to be the most efficient method to exchange energy between any two flows of gases, liquids or solids. By applying this principle in the dryers, users can minimise the amount of drying air needed and maximise the amount of energy that can be transferred. This results in a lower air exhaust volume and a lower exhaust air temperature.
