Spectroscopic Platform
Description
The food spectroscopic platform instruments allow for detailed analysis and characterization of food and related samples, supporting both qualitative and quantitative studies across various applications.
FT-IR VERTEX 70 with MultiRAM FT-Raman Module
The FT-IR VERTEX 70 is a Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectrometer designed for accurate measurements in the range of 4000–30 cm⁻¹ with a high resolution of 0.5 cm⁻¹. It is a versatile instrument capable of analyzing a wide variety of food samples, including solids, liquids, and semi-liquids, making it ideal for applications in food science and technology.
It offers multiple measurement options, including:
- Transmission mode
- Attenuated Total Reflection (ATR) using the single-reflection diamond accessory Bruker Platinum, ideal for quick and non-destructive analysis.
- Measurements samples in gas phase
The Multi-RAM module is a Raman spectrometer based on Fourier Transform technology. It features an Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm) and two advanced detectors: a high-sensitivity germanium detector and an InGaAs detector for extended spectral range capabilities. A computer-controlled sample stage allows for easy sample positioning. This module enables measurements in the spectral range of 3600–50 cm⁻¹ with a resolution of 0.5 cm⁻¹, ensuring precise and reliable results.
MQR-Spectra P LF-NMR
The MQR is a high-performance TD-NMR system designed for applications based on relaxation and/or diffusion measurements. The system includes a high-performance digital spectrometer, a 20 MHz (0.47T) permanent magnet, and 18 mm probes. It offers measurements in the temperature range of -20°C to 150°C.
It provides multiple measurement options, including:
- FID and CPMG
- Solid fat content (SFC%)
- Droplet size distribution (DSD)
- Diffusion measurements
- Solid echo
- 2D measurements
- Kinetics
Options and requirements for use
NIR - Foss DS2500
NIR - FT-NIR Bomem

- The sample amount depends on the sample type and the spectroscopic technique used.
- Measurements are recorded by a superuser of the spectroscopic platform.
- Independent operation is possible, but training is required.
- Interpretation and analysis of results are not included in the fee.
When initiating a research collaboration with the University of Copenhagen, a cooperation agreement must be established. Different types of agreements are available depending on the nature of the collaboration.
