Food & Agricultural Analysis

Food & Agricultural Analysis includes laboratory instruments and analytical systems used for quality control,
composition testing, process verification and routine evaluation of food products, beverages, dairy samples,
raw materials, grains, feed and agricultural commodities. This category brings together instrumental platforms
and laboratory workflows used to measure key quality parameters such as moisture, protein, fat, temperature,
composition, elemental profile and other application-specific indicators relevant to production, storage,
incoming inspection and research.

In food, beverage, dairy and agricultural laboratories, analytical requirements often span multiple methods and
instrument families. These may include NIR analyzers for rapid composition screening, Kjeldahl systems for protein
determination, moisture meters and moisture analyzers for grains and food products, elemental analysis platforms
such as ICP systems, as well as supporting equipment for sample preparation, digestion, drying, homogenization
and routine laboratory quality control. Many instruments are shared across agricultural and food workflows because
they address the same analytical targets in different sample matrices.

Selecting the right analytical solution depends on the sample type, measured parameter, required throughput,
reference method, laboratory workflow and the role of the instrument in incoming control, process monitoring,
final product release or research. COLO.Science structures Food & Agricultural Analysis solutions to help
laboratories navigate both technology-based product groups and application-based testing needs across food,
beverage, dairy and agricultural sectors.

ANALYTICAL CATEGORIES

  • NIR analyzers – rapid analytical systems for non-destructive screening of moisture, protein, fat and related composition parameters in food, feed, grains and agricultural samples.
  • Kjeldahl systems – classical wet chemistry platforms for nitrogen and protein determination in food, feed, dairy, grain and raw material laboratories.
  • ICP & elemental analysis – instrumental solutions for elemental profiling, trace metal determination and broader inorganic analysis in food, beverage, dairy and agricultural testing workflows.
  • Moisture meters & moisture analyzers – instruments for moisture control in grains, cereals, feed, flour, powders, raw materials and processed food products.
  • Protein, fat & composition analyzers – systems used for routine determination of nutritional and process-relevant composition parameters across food and agricultural applications.
  • Sample preparation systems – digestion, drying, grinding, homogenization and supporting preparation equipment required for reliable food and agricultural laboratory analysis.
  • Food & beverage testing – application-oriented solutions for quality control, composition verification and process monitoring in food production and beverage laboratories.
  • Dairy analysis – analytical systems for milk, dairy raw materials and finished dairy product evaluation, including key composition and quality parameters.
  • Grain & feed testing – laboratory and at-line solutions for agricultural commodities, cereals, feed ingredients and finished feed quality assessment.
  • Raw material quality control – instruments used to evaluate incoming materials, stored goods and production inputs before processing or release.

FEATURED: COLO.SCIENCE FOOD & AGRICULTURAL ANALYSIS

COLO.Science Food & Agricultural Analysis categories are organized to help laboratories navigate between
technology-based instrument families and application-based testing needs. This structure supports easier movement
from general sector browsing to more specific workflows such as food testing, dairy analysis, grain and feed control,
composition testing, moisture measurement and elemental analysis. It is designed for laboratories that work across
multiple sample types and require both method-specific and application-oriented access to analytical products.
