Trace toxic and major nutrient elements were measured in a single measurement in a milk powder SRM, with no ionization buffers, using a synchronous dual view ICP-OES. The methodology was in accordance with Chinese method GB 5413.21 for raw milk and dairy products. Excellent recoveries were achieved for all elements determined in the SRM, demonstrating the accuracy of the method over a large dynamic range.
New Magnetic Flow Device Speeds Up Detection of Lactic Acid Bacteria and Yeast in Fermentation
November 11th 2024Researchers at Henan Agricultural University have developed a multi-channel magnetic flow device combined with surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) for the rapid and precise isolation, identification, and quantification of lactic acid bacteria and yeast, revolutionizing quality control in fermented food production.
