Quality Control
of Food with
FT-NIR Spectroscopy
Whatever your application is ...
grain, flour & milling products
milk and dairy products
meat & sausages
oil and oil seeds
feed & feed ingredients
Bruker offers solutions for the analysis of raw
materials, ingredients and finished products in
the laboratory, at-line or on-line. With FT-NIR
spectroscopy, standard parameters like dry matter,
fat or protein as well as more complex parameters
e.g. amino acids can be measured in seconds
in different sample forms like powders, solids,
pastes or liquids.
A set of pre-calibrations for various industries is
available for a quick and efficient start.

TANGO FT-NIR spectrometer: robustness, high precision and
straight-forward operator guidance analysis of milk and dairy
products with the MPA II and liquid sampling module LSM
BRUKER OPTICS
FT-NIR Solutions for Food Quality and Safety
Bruker Optics’ FT-NIR spectrometers
are widely used in all areas of the
food industry…like dairy, meat and
edible oil manufacturing. The main
applications are the identification
and quantification of raw materials,
in-process control and the QA/QC
finished products. Bruker Optics
offers a range of FT-NIR analysers
for off-line measurements in the
laboratory, at-line analysis close to
the production or in-line directly in
the process.
FT-NIR spectrometers from
Bruker can cover a wide range
of applications in food analysis,
including not only dairy, oil and
meat applications but also flour and
milling, confectionary, condiments
and beverages. Dedicated sampling
accessories are available for any
type of liquid - powdered, semisolid
or solid sample – and the fast
measurement and simultaneous
determination of multiple parameters
allow analysing many more samples
in a given time, leading to a better
quality product at lower cost.
The TANGO simplifies the NIR
analysis of food ingredients and
products, and therefore offers
maximum security of the results.
The intuitive user interface IT
guides the operators quickly and
securely through the work flow.
The new automated background
measurement also helps untrained
staff to operate the spectrometer
error-free. TANGO demonstrates
how easy FT-NIR analysis can be.
The housing and touch-screen
monitor are rugged and easy to
clean – ideal for lab and at-line
environments. The TANGO comes
in two versions, dedicated to the
analysis of either solid or liquid
samples.
For the dairy industry - including
raw milk analysis - Bruker Optics
offers the MPAII FT-NIR spectrometer
in combination with a softwareassisted
analysis solution for milk
and liquid dairy products. The Liquid
Sampling Module (LSM) is dual use:
It pumps and homogenises raw milk
samples, but can also bypass the
homogeniser for other liquid sample
types. It can handle sample forms
from whey to more complex and
viscous samples like concentrates,
condensed milk and ice cream
premixes. With its automated
cleaning options, it is ideal for
routine use in the dairy lab. With the
combination of the LSM and MPA II,
all different sample forms like liquids,
pastes or powders can be analysed
with the same instrument.
