Food Analysis - Sample Preparation Workflow Solutions

Sample preparation in food and agriculture applications is often complicated by the nature of the sample matrix. Solid or semi-solid samples such as fruit, vegetables, tissue or soil need specialized sample pre-treatment for efficient extraction of the analytes. And the complexity of sample matrices requires robust and reliable clean-up methodology. Learn more about our smart sample preparation solutions for simplifying sample handling and clean-up of these difficult samples.

Homogenization

Homogenization is used to ensure food sample matrices are representative as possible, and to ensure your extraction is as effective as possible.

Biotage® Lysera

Some samples may only require a simple whizz in a food processor, but for other food matrices Biotage Lysera is a bead homogenizer capable of preparing representative homogenates of even tough samples like hard or soft animal tissue, plant material and soil. The design offers a quick and effective approach without jeopardizing sample integrity.
