NIR spectroscopy is a well-known and recognized method that has been used for food quality control including milk analysis for decades. Such analyzers are complex, expensive, sensitive and demanding both to the conditions of use and to the measured samples analytical instruments that require high qualification and special training of personnel, significant costs for calibration, maintenance and service, all the above limits the application of this technology and this method to the framework of laboratories and large enterprises.
Even despite the significant progress in the development of the methods of liquids’ and milk parameters analysis achieved in the last decades and despite the fact that in the last years a number of companies, manufacturers and developers of components and solutions for spectroscopy have been actively working to reduce the price of mini-spectrometers in order to make this technology more affordable, for various reasons the global leaders and producers of analytical instruments for food and dairy sector are not even considering the possibility of creating a product available to the mass consumer and adapting this advanced technology for use by farmers.
We invite you to visit the websites of such companies as Hamamatsu, Ocean Insight, Pyreos, etc. to get acquainted with the advantages and infinite possibilities of the technology and solutions they offer:
