A recent study published in Food Research International demonstrates how visible and near-infrared spectroscopy (Vis-NIRS) combined with machine-learning algorithms can accurately authenticate meat and fat based on livestock feeding systems, offering a sustainable and reliable solution for traceability in the meat industry.

A recent study by researchers from the University of Belgrade highlights the transformative potential of attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FT-IR) spectroscopy for analyzing protein structures. This versatile method not only provides insights into secondary structures but also excels at tracking aggregation processes, offering advantages over traditional techniques like X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.

This application note demonstrates the performance of a Milli-Q® ultrapure water system for the quality control of metals in food and water samples in regulated labs.

The world of engineering and innovation mourns the loss of a towering figure with the passing of Sir David McMurtry, CBE, RDI, FREng, FRS, CEng, FIMechE, co-founder and Non-Executive Director of Renishaw. Known for his brilliance, humility, and groundbreaking contributions to metrology and manufacturing, McMurtry leaves a legacy that has profoundly shaped modern engineering.
