Tracking Samples to Improve Food Safety
Ziath has launched a competitively priced starter kit for organisations involved in food research, production and testing to keep track of samples to help improve food safety.
Reflecting the threat of foodborne illnesses and product recalls, food safety is an issue of significant and growing importance to consumers, food manufacturers and research laboratories. Increasingly legislative bodies around the world are pushing for handlers along the entire food supply chain to put in place food ‘track and trace’ provisions to prevent catastrophic harm to the health of consumers and avoid food safety related disruption and economic loss to the food industry.
The Ziath ‘Track and Trace’ starter kit contains everything an organisation needs to start up and maintain enhanced food sample integrity, tracking and audit trail.
The new starter kit combines top-quality 2D coded sample storage tubes, 48-position SBS format tube racks and a high-performance single tube 2D barcode scanner. Also included within this package is the Ziath Samples™ sample management software which allows you to organise your food sample inventory, making setting up a traceable record of food samples very straightforward.

Powerful FTIR Analyser for the Wine Industry
As an established provider of highly accurate and reliable measurement systems, Anton Paar offers renowned solutions for wine producers, filling plants, and fee-for-service laboratories. In a step to complete the portfolio for the wine industry, Anton Paar now launches the novel Fourier-Transform Infra Red (FTIR) Analyzer Lyza 5000 Wine. With a multitude of parameters and connectivity to Anton Paar’s established wine analysing systems, Lyza 5000 Wine is the multi-parameter analyser the industry has been waiting for.
FTIR spectroscopy in combination with chemometric models is one of the most powerful technologies for quickly and accurately determining the essential wine parameters, including ethanol content, sugar profiles, and acid profiles. With Lyza 5000 Wine’s user-friendly touchscreen interface anyone, whether oenologist or lab technician, can handle even complex measurement routines with ease.
Quick results are necessary in order to have immediate quality control during the production process and to minimise reaction times. Lyza 5000 Wine not only gives results in less than one minute in stand-alone operation, it also automates analysis with Anton Paar’s affordable Xsample 520 sample changer. Lyza 5000 Wine connects to Anton Paar instruments such as density meters, alcohol meters, pH meters, and turbidity meters, creating the most powerful measurement system for wine analysis. Results from all connected instruments are collected in an all-in-one report after only one sample preparation, one filling, and one measurement. For the highest degree of automation, Lyza5000 Wine can be fully integrated into LIMS systems via Ethernet and WiFi.
Lyza 5000 Wine is more precise than any other FTIR analyser. The reason for this outstanding precision is the temperature control of ±0.03°C in a 12-bounce attenuated total reflection (ATR) measurement cell, which delivers ideal signal intensity barely influenced by gassing or turbid samples. Integrated workflows guide the user through reference measurements as well as through procedures to determine the instrument’s condition - ensuring the best measurement performance at all times.

Analytical Solution for the Determination of Contaminants in Food and Feed Samples
Food safety laboratories can use the new Thermo Scientific Dioxin Analyzer to meet evolving regulatory expectations for the confirmatory analysis of dioxins and other POPs. The new comprehensive GC-MS-based analytical workflow brings together the Thermo Scientific Triple Quadrupole TSQ 9000 GC-MS/MS system with the Thermo Scientific Advanced Electron Ionization (AEI) source, capillary GC column, system suitability check, standard solutions, software and comprehensive user guidelines for reliable and cost- effective assessment of food and feed for dioxins and POPs.
Enhancing productivity and throughput while sustaining sensitivity and performance, the new Thermo Scientific DFS Software Package for the Thermo Scientific DFS Magnetic Sector GC-HRMS provides food safety laboratories with a fully automated solution for the quantitative analysis of dioxins and other POPs in various matrices. The DFS Software Package enables the automation of daily instrument operations, enhancing ease-of-use with calculation transparency for full data confidence.
“Food testing laboratories are at the frontline of the global food chain and must screen food and feed for an array of contaminants to monitor its integrity and safeguard consumers – but this presents significant analytical and resource challenges,” said Khalil Divan, Senior Director, Marketing, Food and Beverage, Thermo Fisher Scientific. “The launch of the Dioxin Analyzer and the DFS Software Package for the DFS Magnetic Sector GC-HRMS demonstrates our continued commitment to help customers protect the integrity of the global food chain by providing access to advanced, analytical solutions that meets their individual requirements for the accurate quantification of dioxins and other POPs within any food or feed sample matrix.”

New Device Detects Food Contamination with Real-time Results
Inspecto Ltd has introduced a new device that detects chemical contamination in food in real-time. The portable scanner can detect contaminants at concentration levels as required by regulators, guaranteeing traceability and complete transparency.
Inspecto’s innovative device brings lab testing to the farmers, food manufactures, and retailers without time-consuming, high-cost lab testing. The Inspecto solution is fast, accurate, affordable, and saves unnecessary costs. This high-tech solution offers the food industry the ability to tailor contaminant testing to their needs and location.
The next-gen inspection system scans the product or the crop and identifies contaminants according to specific requirements of the client. A sample is placed in a disposable capsule for detection, inserted into the device, and then activated with a simple press of a button. It scans the sample and processes it automatically within minutes, resulting in a reliable, quantified measurement of the selected contaminant. The scan can be conducted outdoors or indoors, anytime to ensure responsible sourcing. All results are stored on a cloud, recorded and analysed in real time. This high-tech device fills the industry’s need to conduct more frequent testing at different points along the production line, with immediate results.
The Inspecto device can be tuned to identify almost any chemical contaminant, in any product, liquid or solid.
