Food & Crop Quality

Food Analysis

Meat Quality

Protein detection methods are important tools for the control of meat quality. For example, the contamination of pork products with other types of meat can be detected based on the different protein patterns of the different species. In contrast to genetically based methods, not only the animal species but also the composition of the meat can be determined. In addition, mass spectrometric methods can be used.

.

Crop Quality

For the registration of new varieties (e.g. wheat or potato), it must be clearly proven that the new variety differs from already known varieties. The easiest way to do this is to compare the protein patterns of the corresponding varieties. In addition, the protein patterns can be used to prove the purity of seed varieties, which is a prerequisite for marketing them as qualified seed (quality testing).

.

Assay Development

Due to diversity of proteins and proteoms detection methods have to be as divers. For example, it is not always possible to deduce from one cereal variety to another. Species-dependent optimizations of protein detection must be carried out. We can optimise on your behalf and offer solutions which you can apply in your own laboratory or which we can carry out further.
