Mineral Detection

Sidebar Image

Minerals detection of food and feed can help determine the right daily portion and the level of supplements needed. Identifying the harmful minerals in the food and feed can avert possible health problems and also prevent them entering the food chain which may be harmful for human consumption.

Our minerals detection methods are both accurate and flexible, giving you peace of mind and a range of choices. Using an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) spectrometer, we can identify 16 different metals like:

  • Phosphorous
  • Calcium
  • Manganese
  • Magnesium
  • Arsenic
  • Lead
  • Potassium
  • Iron
  • Sodium
  • Floride
  • Sulphur
  • Cobalt
  • Zinc
  • Copper
