AA
Nitrogen/Protein Analysis of Food Samples
Dr. Tentoni, Gruppo CSA SpA, Italy
Why did the Gruppo CSA SpA research institute select the Thermo Scientific FLASH 4000 N/Protein analyzer for their analysis of animal feed and human food samples?
 
Dedicated Sulfur Analysis for Agronomy
Luigi Ragaglia, Liliana Krotz, and Guido Giazzi
The importance of soil and plant testing has grown dramatically in recent years and many of the classical sulfur determination methods are no longer suitable for routine analysis. This document details an alternative analytical solution without the use of hazardous chemicals.
 
Nitrogen Determination in Soils and Plants
Liliana Krotz and Guido Giazzi
The determination of nitrogen in soils requires the use of accurate instrumental analytical techniques and the avoidance of toxic chemicals. Read how the Thermo Scientific FLASH 4000 analyzer offers a simple and automatic solution which enables fast analysis combined with excellent reproducibility.
 
Protein Analysis in Cereals and Beans
Luigi Ragaglia, Liliana Krotz, and Guido Giazzi
Protein content is used as a measure of nutritional quality in cereals and beans. Discover an approved analytical method that performs faster, safer, and more reliably than the traditional Kjehdahl method.
 
Performance Through Food Safety Reference Materials
Liliana Krotz and Guido Giazzi
Accurate and precise determination of protein content has become very important to ensure the commercial quality and the nutritional value of the produce. This note demonstrates the Thermo Scientific FLASH 4000 performance in this area against certified reference materials.

AA
Biomass and Bio-fuels Characterization
Liliana Krotz and Guido Giazzi
Many manufacturing plants and research laboratories are involved in the characterization of these alternative fuels to establish viability for production. This note describes a method to characterize these materials by identifying their energetic value via CHNS/O elemental composition.
 
Improvements to Diesel and Bio-diesel Characterization
Liliana Krotz and Guido Giazzi
This application note demonstrates the use of the Thermo Scientific FLASH 2000 elemental analyzer with automatic liquid injection for quantitative determination of CHNS/O in light and heavy liquids and viscous samples.
