Product characteristics

Feed Analysis: NIR AMINO & X ELEMENTS for Energy and Protein Feed.

Professional analytical determination of absolute nutrient content, macrominerals, trace elements, feed energy, and detailed amino acids for advanced evaluation of various energy and protein feeds. A prerequisite for creating cost- and N & P-optimized feed mixtures.

Definition and Procedure of NIR AMINO & X ELEMENTS Feed Analysis:

The NIR AMINO & X ELEMENTS feed analysis refers to the generation of measurement values using near-infrared reflection spectroscopy (NIR).

NIR AMINO & X ELEMENTS analysis procedure in feed analysis:

  1. The sample is gently dried by a special process until a defined dry matter content is achieved.
  2. The sample is crushed to the ideal particle size using specialized equipment.
  3. The sample is analyzed using NIR analytics (reading the reflected light spectrum of a defined wavelength range).
  4. Digital image is created from the reading, from which the constituents and properties of the feed are derived, and the analysis results are generated.

Instructions

To maintain the quality of your samples optimally, we recommend vacuum sealing the samples.
This way, the sample is best protected from aerobic influences during shipping, closely resembling the conditions in your silo.

A commercially available vacuum device is required for this purpose.
If you do not have such a device, please order the sample set with a pressure seal.

To preserve your sample for shipping, the air should be removed from the bag as much as possible before sealing it.
