Grain wet corn milling

Wet Corn Milling

Our unique combination of functional and compositional testing helps starch manufacturers to be efficient and produce the right quality starches. Native starch pasting quality is readily assessed, the modifications made to starch can be monitored and characterized, and starch performance in food formulations and process considerations for food manufacture can be evaluated.

NIR instruments for at-line as well as on-line use makes process optimization easier than ever before. All types of samples can be analyzed - grains, powders, slurries, liquids and more.

Screening Ingredients

Screen your corn for moisture, protein, oil, and starch in less than 1 minute. Measure starch pasting properties to detect potential issues or required processing conditions before corn enters the plant.

Determination of Mycotoxins in Cereals by LC/MS/MS with Online SPE

Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites produced by fungi, and are capable of causing disease and death in both humans and animals. Sample preparation is a critical step in the successful analysis of mycotoxins in food matrices. The "dilute and shoot" approach is a quick and easy way to introduce ...

Pregelatinized starch method - RVA 42.01

Raw starch pasting curves have a typical low initial (cold) viscosity, followed by a viscosity peak caused by swelling of the raw starch granules, and a relatively high setback viscosity. Processing by thermal and mechanical inputs will progressively reduce peak and setback viscosities. Cold viscosi ...
