BAVERAGES ANALYSIS

Beer

Beer is a popular beverage consisting of four main ingredients: grain (mostly malted barley), hops that come in a wide assortment, yeast for fermentation, and water, which accounts for up to 95% of the finished product. Each of these four ingredients is responsible for a number of beer’s attributes.

Soft Drink Additives Testing

Beverage bottling plants must ensure raw materials and finished products are both consistent and safe, requiring a variety of quality control testing, including additives analysis of carbonated soft drinks (CSDs).

Soft Drinks

Confirming that raw materials, syrups, and finished products meet quality standards can not only reduce the risk of costly product recalls, but can also serve as an opportunity to monitor operational performance at bottling plants.

Spirits

Scotch Whisky and other European spirits are premium global products, and are therefore a major target for illegal counterfeiters. A number of analytical techniques have been utilized for detecting adulterated whisky and spirits.

Wine

The global wine industry is an established market with more than one million wine makers globally.

DETERMINATION OF METHYL- AND INORGANIC MERCURY IN FISH WITH THE NEXSAR HPLC-ICP-MS SPECIATION SOLUTION

Methylmercury (MeHg) is an extremely toxic form of mercury, posing significant health risks, especially to developing fetuses.

MeHg is also formed through biological activity in aquatic environments, undergoing bioaccumulation in the food chain, resulting in higher concentrations in larger predatory fish and marine mammals compared to smaller fish and in water.

 To address these concerns, the combination of High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS) has emerged as a simple and effective analytical method for quantifying MeHg in fish. The HPLC technique allows for highly efficient separation of inorganic and organic mercury species, while ICP-MS enables quantification with high sensitivity and accuracy. This combination ensures the precise detection of MeHg even at trace and ultra-trace levels. The ability to distinguish between methylmercury and inorganic mercury is crucial for accurately assessing risks and regulatory compliance. 

Key Learnings:

  • The harmful effects of methylmercury and inorganic mercury, the importance of screening this neurotoxin in aquatic and seafood products.
  • Explore the analytical performance that HPLC-ICP-MS can bring in seafood quality control.
