Instrument: ECS 8060
The protein content of food is normally determined based on its nitrogen content; this is multiplied by the coefficient 6.25, thus obtaining the crude protein.
In reality, part of the nitrogen of fodder and other foods is not protein in nature, deriving from free amino acids, amides, various organic compounds (nitrogenous bases), as well as from ammonia compounds.
The determination of Nitrogen content assumes a relevant role for the determination of quality of products and from a veterinary point of view.
By using ECS8060, nitrogen determination in pet food is easy and low-cost. Thanks to its versatility, both wet and dried samples can be analyzed, giving always high analysis performances and accuracy.
