Animal Feeds and Foods
EDXRF provides a comprehensive solution for the elemental analysis of premixes, finished feeds, and silages, offering a simple, non-destructive, and cost-effective alternative to traditional methods. Whether monitoring nutrient levels, ensuring toxic metal concentrations are below regulatory limits, or conducting quality control checks, EDXRF can help you achieve your analytical goals.
With our EDXRF solutions, you can achieve real-time monitoring of incoming materials, at-line production control, and positive release testing of finished products, ensuring the quality and safety of your animal feed and food products.
Benchtop solutions for animal feed and food applications
Our EDXRF benchtops make analysis quick and easy, even for demanding trace measurements. Other techniques used, like ICP and AAS, can be costly and time-consuming, challenging if you are operating within budget constraints or need results quickly. Our systems deliver elemental composition data in minutes and do not need ongoing allocations for expensive consumables and maintenance. Here are some advantages that our systems provide:
- Rapid, non-destructive elemental analysis
- Multi-element capabilities, from ultra-low concentrations to percent levels
- Measurement of all elements from sodium (Na) to uranium (U)
- Analysis without standards using RPF-SQX Fundamental Parameters
- Multi-application versatility, including raw materials, premixes, and finished feeds and forages
- Easy sample preparation, lower cost per sample compared to other techniques
- Simple operation with intuitive software, even for non-technical personnel
- Low cost of ownership, self-installed and maintained
Advanced Fundamental Parameters Software
Advanced qualitative and quantitative analysis is powered by our RPF-SQX FP software, featuring Rigaku Profile Fitting (RPF) technology and Scattering FP. This software allows semi-quantitative analysis of almost all sample types without standards and rigorous quantitative analysis with standards. Scattering FP automatically estimates the concentration of unmeasurable low atomic number elements (hydrogen to fluorine) and provides appropriate corrections.
Given at least one sample with known concentrations from a referee technique, the software allows you to quickly and easily create a Matching Library. This feature changes the analysis from semi-quant to fully quantitative, tuning your XRF to your specific analysis needs.
Calibration standards can be expensive and difficult to obtain. With RPF-SQX, the number of required standards is greatly reduced. This option significantly lowers the cost of ownership and reduces your workload requirements.
