Efficient sample preparation and high-capacity columns for successful food and beverage analysis
Mar 07 2024
In today’s consumer-driven market, the demand for transparency and knowledge regarding the ingredients present in food and beverages has never been greater. Consumers expect accurate information about the products they purchase for numerous reasons including dietary restrictions and health concerns. As a result, regulatory bodies have imposed increasingly stricter regulations to ensure that product quality standards are upheld.
Analysing food and beverage samples presents considerable challenges due to both the extensive array of analysts involved and the complexity of the sample matrix. These samples can cause issues with the analytical procedure because of their heterogeneous nature and different physical properties.
Ion chromatography (IC) is a versatile and indispensable tool for the analysis of various regulated components in food and beverage samples. When analysing such highly loaded matrices with IC, sample preparation and column capacity are two of the most essential factors for success.
