The QTA System analyzes a wide variety of food and food ingredients. Whether analyzing specific components of the food, e.g. fat, oil, sugar; or predicting functional properties, the QTA System provides fast, accurate analyses, with results in less than 2 minutes.
The versatility of the QTA System’s sample presentation system enables the analysis of all types of food materials, whether they are solids, liquids, pastes, suspensions, etc., all using the same QTA instrument.
