Compact NIR spectrometer for QA of flour and grain
The NIR spectrometer mylab NIR-Analyzer CEREAL enables fast, accurate and non-destructive analysis of the ingredients and composition of flours and cereal products.
This compact, high-performance near-infrared spectrometer can be used for applications ranging from raw material testing to product development and quality assurance of end products.
The mylab NIR Analyzer CEREAL is pre-calibrated for products of various flours and cereals.
Pre-calibrated parameters for flour and grain
The following parameters for NIR spectroscopy are pre-calibrated on the system for the product groups rye flour, wheat flour, spelt flour, soy flour, rice flour, oat flour, lentil flour and others:
- Total protein
- Humidity
- Ash content
- Moist adhesive
- Sedimentation value
Our team of experts will carry out calibrations and adjustments for the measurement of other products for you at low cost.
If laboratory analyses are required, these can be carried out in our accredited food testing laboratory.
Application Note
Chapter: Training the mylab NIR-Analyzer for the Analysis of Flour and Cereals
The mylab NIR-Analyzer was trained using 100 flour samples derived from various cereals, including rye, buckwheat, barley, and wheat.
The following parameters were analyzed: total protein, gluten, ash, moisture, and sedimentation value.
Table 2 presents the range of values for the dataset, the deviation of the parameters obtained via NIRS compared to thereference analysis, and the measurement accuracy (…)
