Food Lab Insights: How One Testing Lab Transformed Sample Prep

Ensuring accurate, compliant data is critical for food manufacturers and contract labs tasked with analyzing complex food and feed matrices. From elemental testing to nutritional profiling, maintaining data integrity while meeting fast turnaround expectations is an ongoing challenge.
In this webinar, we’ll explore how microwave-assisted digestion, extraction, and hydrolysis help laboratories streamline sample preparation for food and feed analysis. You’ll also learn how a 'Total Workflow' approach can reduce processing time, improve data quality, and scale operations efficiently.
Plus, hear from Light Labs, a modern analytical testing facility, on how they combine Single Reaction Chamber (SRC) microwave digestion with high-throughput rotor-based systems for targeted workflows like sample preparation and FAMEs analysis.
In this session, we’ll cover how to:
- Improve throughput and accuracy with microwave-assisted sample preparation.
- Enable complete digestion of complex food matrices with SRC technology.
- Support specialized workflows like FAMEs and amino acids with rotor-based systems.
- Learn from Light Labs on scaling operations while maintaining data quality.
