Tests in oils extracted from Nuts with FoodLabFat
Available Analysis for nuts oil
In just a few minutes, FoodLabFat enables to test Peroxide Value (PV), Free Fatty Acids (FFA) e p-Anisidine Avalue in oil extracted from Nuts, and thus provides a complete overview of the oxidation status of the tested product.
Several comparative studies have demonstrated that the accuracy of the analytical results of nuts oxidation tests are compliance with reference methods, but highlighted the fact that FoodLabFat is simpler to use and yields the required results in shorter time.
Nuts oil testing without use Toxic Solvents for extraction
The system for the determination of the oxidation status of nuts can be combined with the practical and fast CDR's Nut Oils Extraction System in order to extract a sufficient amount of oil to be tested with FoodLabFat from nuts at low temperatures and without using chemical solvents.
The nut oil extraction system can be used for all types of nuts – e.g. walnuts, peanuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, pistachios, cashews, etc.
Practicality and Time Savings to analyze oil extracted from nuts
FoodLabFat is able to test very small samples and does not require calibration or maintenance operations. It does not necessarily have to be used in a laboratory, and can be employed by unskilled personnel in production facilities. Results are yielded in just few minutes.
When used in combination with the extraction system, FoodLabFat is particularly indicated for all companies that produce, process and package nuts.
The leading companies of this segment have in fact already chosen this method because it enables to rapidly control the quality of nuts and to eliminate the need of using traditional analytical methods that involve the use of toxic solvents (Soxhlet).
