The analysis timeline is critical in winemaking to assure the quality of the finished product.  Discrete analyzer systems ensure fast, reliable, and repeatable results by utilizing specific enzyme reactions and robust robotics to streamline laboratory analysis during critical times of the year, like harvest. We will discuss the principles of photometric analysis, important parameters to analyze in grapes and wine, and how a discrete analyzer is used in a wine laboratory.

Key Learning Objectives:

  • Understanding what to test for in wine, and when

  • Understanding the principles of photometric analysis

  • Understanding how a discrete analyzer will streamline typical wine lab workflows

Speaker: David Glutz, Product Specialist, Discrete Analyzers, Thermo Fisher Scientific

The bulky bench-top NIR spectrometer is quietly being dismantled and rebuilt as a wafer-scale photonic chip, a self-calibrating algorithm, and a sensor small enough to ride in a shirt pocket. What once demanded a grating, a moving mirror, and a climate-controlled lab now fits inside a handheld module, a bioreactor probe, or a drone payload, and it increasingly figures out what it is looking at on its own.
Sizing Up the Nanoscale: Measuring Nanocluster Aerosol in Indoor Air
In the first part of a multi-part Q&A, Brandon Boor, the Dr. Margery E. Hoffman Associate Professor in the Lyles School of Civil and Construction Engineering at Purdue University, describes the instrumentation and methodology behind measuring nanoparticle size distributions at the nanocluster scale (1–3 nm) and outlines the technical challenges of acquiring reliable, real-time data at these dimensions.
