Offering a full range of solutions for Food and Feed testing
The ANKOM DELTA Fiber Analyzer automates fiber determinations at the highest level. Capable of Acid Detergent, Neutral Detergent, and Crude Fiber analysis (AOCS Ba 6a-05), the ANKOM DELTA includes an internal pumping system that allows the user to place any chemical container within range of the instrument for automated delivery; no more lifting heavy chemical containers.
Technician-free control of ADF, NDF, and Crude Fiber methodology guarantees proper delivery of all required solutions and rinses, assuring method compliance. Switch between methods and monitor operation seamlessly with a simple computer interface. Additionally, the extractor and equipment ensure smooth execution of the process.
Semi-Automated Crude & Detergent FiberPerforms AOCS Ba 6a-05 Crude Fiber, Acid Detergent Fiber, and Neutral Detergent Fiber analyses for all feeds and forages. The ANKOM 200 Fiber Analyzer has been subjected to rigorous testing over a broad range of sample types and methods.
The ANKOM 200 is accurate and precise when compared to conventional fiber methods. Most elements of technician variability are eliminated and there is no separate filtration step, achieving consistent results every time.
ANKOM’s patented Filter Bag Technology encapsulates samples, preventing sample transfer errors and enabling all samples to be processed in a single batch of up to 24 samples. The ANKOM 200 Fiber Analyzer costs less than competitive alternatives and serves to preserve lab space while lowering labor costs.
The ANKOM XT15 Extractor provides a solution for efficient and economical solvent extraction in fat/oil analysis. It is an automated instrument for Soxhlet type extractions in a closed system. Fat ranges from 0% to 100% have been accurately determined using this procedure. The XT15’s low cost provides an affordable high-volume solution.
Filter Bag Technology simplifies handling and enables batch processing, allowing for the extraction of up to 15 samples at a time, 150 samples per day. The instrument’s 90°C temperatures accelerate extraction kinetics, reducing most extraction times to under 40 minutes. Automatic solvent recycling and activated charcoal filter eliminates the need for a vent hood and reduces costs.
The ANKOM FLEX Analyte Extractor's innovative design and automated technology supports multiple analysis configurations and preparation:
Vitamin & Cholesterol methods (based on AOAC 2011.07, EN-12823-1, EN-12822, EN 17547:2021)
Total Fat method
Crude Fat method
For these analyses, the FLEX automatically digests, extracts, and evaporates multiple samples at one time, in about two to three hours, eliminating technician involvement. Isolated analytes can then be quantified gravimetrically (total fat, crude fat) or chromatographically (LC-DAD/FLD, LC-MS-MS, or GD-FID; Vitamin A, E, D, cholesterol, and fatty acid profiling).
The ANKOM TDF Dietary Fiber Analyzer creates a new standard used for nutritional labeling, analysis, quality control, and research.
By automating one of the most tedious analytical methods, the apparatus ANKOM Total Dietary Fiber Analyzer reduces labor and per-sample costs while increasing accuracy and precision.
ANKOM’s patented Filter Bag Technology increases filtering surface area which reduces the time needed to filter samples and eliminates the use of vacuum flasks and crucibles.
The ANKOM HCl Hydrolysis System provides an easy method for performing the hydrolysis step in total fat/oil analysis. Filter Bag Technology prevents sample transfer errors and allows for batch hydrolysis of up to 15 samples at a time, reducing both labor and sample costs.
The technician inserts samples into the vessel, adds the acid solution, and follows the screen prompts. Once the program is selected, the system automatically completes the process and rinses the samples.
The ANKOM RF2000 Gas Production System provides an easy-to-use method for monitoring and measuring gas production.
Samples and microbes (or other fermentation sources) are placed in the bottles; the RF Module is attached to the bottle and then placed in an incubator. The pressure of each bottle can be measured at user-selected time intervals. Pressure measurements are recorded on a standard Excel spreadsheet and gas production curves are generated.
he DAISYII Incubator has a demonstrated history of rigorous testing over a broad range of sample types. Labs around the world have achieved results in In Vitro True Digestibility, Apparent Digestibility, Rate studies, Neutral Cellulase Gamanase Digestibility, ND Digestibility, Enzymatic Digestions, and other related studies for all feeds and forages with the DAISYII.
The DAISYII employs Filter Bag Technology, which encapsulates samples and prevents filtration errors. Filter Bag Technology also enables batch processing of 100+ samples at a time. Most elements of technician variability are eliminated, providing precise and consistent results every time.
he ANKOM RD Dryer 120v 50/60 HZ is designed to dry samples and resist corrosion. The following two filters can be used with the RD Dryer depending on your application:
1) The RD1 Dryer Activated Carbon Filter is used when drying filter bags before and after a fat extraction using an ANKOM XT15 or ANKOM XT10 Extractor.
2) The RD2 Dryer Neutralizing Filter is used when drying filter bags after a hydrolysis operation is done with an ANKOM HCl Hydrolysis System.
