Complete Solution for beer analysis

Beer is one of the favorite alcoholic beverages in the world with a high level of quality, reaching back to the German beer purity law from 1516. Nowadays the quality standards for beer analysis are defined by the Central European Commission for Brewing Analysis (MEBAK) and the European Brewery Convention (EBC), representing technical and scientific interests of the brewing sector in the European countries. These regulations include the determination of numerous elements (such as Arsenic, Calcium, Copper, Sodium, Potassium, and more), anions (such as nitrate and sulfite) as well as organic components (ethanol, glycerine) and last not least pesticides and mycotoxins. In order to maintain the high level of quality, chemical investigations have to be performed, using different analytical techniques like spectroscopy, chromatography, mass- spectrometry to quantify all the potential contaminants. Shimadzu is offering a wide range of analytical equipment and can provide appropriate configurations and applications as a total solution for beer analysis.

Take a look at our solutions for beer analysis. We are looking forward to welcoming you on the Shimadzu booth.
