Each and any analysis system from the CDR FoodLab® line is composed of a thermostated analyzer based on photometric technology and a kit of dedicated, pre-vialed reagents specifically developed by the research laboratories of CDR.
Photometric technology
All analyzers of the CDR FoodLab® line house an innovative reading cell equipped with LED emitters at fixed wavelengths ranging from ultraviolet to the visible spectrum, so powerful that it is possible to measure absorbance up to 6 optical depth.
These features endow the CDR FoodLab® analysis systems with high sensitivity, a wide measuring range and an excellent repeatability of the test results.
The cutting-edge photometric technology of the CDR analysis systems has allowed to develop and fine tune new analytical methods to determine key parameters on food and beverage.
Technical features of the system

1. Innovative photometric reading cell
The reading cell guarantees high sensitivity, a wide measuring range, and an excellent repeatability of the test results thanks to state-of-the-art LED emitters at fixed wavelengths (from ultraviolet to the visible spectrum, up to 6 OD).

2. Help function throughout the analytical process
It is even easier and faster to perform the tests thanks to the online Help function. During any testing session, the operator can look up the analytical procedure step by step.

3. Multitasking mode
The multitasking mode allows performing several analyses at the same time. It allows the system to process one analysis and to start another one at the same time, with the possibility to go back to the first one at any moment with just a click.

4. Memory
The analyzer has an internal memory that can store thousands of test results, which can be either viewed directly on the touch screen display or exported via the USB port.
Barcode / QR Code Reader
- With the Systems in CDR FoodLab® Range software you are able to manage the bar code/QR code reader.
- The bar code of the sample is automatically displayed, as name of sample, on the analyser.
- You can associate all the analyses you run on that sample.
Host Computer or Intranet Connection
- Connecting the analyser through ethernet port to your intranet, the results can be shared.
- The software gives the possibility with a “flag” to validate or not the results that have to be shared.
- Connecting the analyser through USB port to your Host computer, in order to export the results.
