those things they don’t know? With the
introduction of the DairyGuardTM Milk
Powder Analyzer, advanced algorithms
are applied to easily screen for
known and unknown
economic adulterants in milk powder,
as well as perform
key quality parameters such as protein,
lactose, moisture,
ash and fat in as little
as 30 seconds.
The DairyGuard system with full
self-checking and diagnostics ensures
it is always performing at highest
capacity and optimised for
the most dependable
results. Simply place
a sample in a petri
dish, push the button
and a simple pass/
fail answer tells you
if the sample has
been adulterated and
whether or not the
sample may require further testing. This
non-targeted screening help deliver
the most important ingredient by far,
namely peace of mind. Learn to detect
differently and protect your brand. ⚛
