Techniques - Sample Preparation

Food And Feed represent all the substances that, introduced in living organisms, supply the energy and structural components required for growth and preservation of vital functions in most cases these in turn become food for human consumption essential for growth and preservation of the species.

The compositions of food and feed must be defined in terms of proteins, carbohydrates and fats for their nutritional content, in conformity with international standards.

The innovative equipment manufactured by VELP Scientifica, and distributed by OMICRON RESEARCH provides substantial assistance to food and feed analysts involved in production and research.

In a constantly evolving scientific world, research, process control and quality control are in faced with increasingly stricter controls to be carried out with reliable validated equipment that offers accurate and precise testing conditions. Velp provides solutions for these needs starting with the basic instruments essential for the analyst's job: stirrers, digesters, evaporators, pumps and shakers.

Stirrers - heating, magnetic, and rotary are laboratory solutions widely used in all biological and chemical laboratories for a variety of applications.

VELP offers a wide range of stirring solutions, with rotary, magnetic, heated single-place or multi-place systems, suited to different stirring volume capacities and provided with the highest safety standards. The heating magnetic stirrers VELP offers are solutions that are versatile reliable and guaranteed over the years.

Peristaltic pumps are widely used to transfer liquids in Velp's SP311 range of peristaltic pumps is available in four different versions with different flow ratesindustry sectors like pharmaceutical, food, biotechnological, chemical, beverage. The main reason is due to the fact that the liquid never gets in touch with internal parts of the pump, so avoiding all the problems in cleaning, sterilization, sanitisation. Velp has developed the SP311 range available in four different versions with different flow rates in order to satisfy the most diversified needs.

Our stirring and pumping systems are built in conformity with the international design and safety regulations for protecting the laboratory technician and the environment. They are made using the best components on the market and innovative construction techniques, while at the same time remaining simple to use.

The innovative equipment manufactured by Velp Scientifica and distributed in the UK by OMICRON RESEARCH provides substantial assistance to food and feed analysts involved in production and research.
