  Automatic Nitrogen Protein Analyzer by Dumas Method:

• Automated nitrogen / protein  (and carbon) determination according to the Dumas method
• Reliable Dumas results in less than 3 minutes and at a low cost per sample
• Ergonomic design with integrated PC and Tiltable Touchscreen
• Modern, cost-effective, time-saving and space-saving alternative to traditional Kjeldahl systems
• High throughput made reliable and cost efficient
• Available in two configurations: carbon and nitrogen / protein or sole nitrogen / protein

food analysis equipment:-

The Kjeldahl method consists of three steps: 1) DIGESTION of the sample in sulphuric acid with a catalyst. The nitrogen contained in the sample is converted to ammonia; ammonium sulphate being formed. 2) DISTILLATION of ammonia released from ammonium sulphate by addition of an excess of sodium hydroxide; ammonia being trapped in a trapping solution (sulphuric acid). 3) BACK-TITRATION of the excess of the trapping solution.
