ISO 93412 Moisture Analysis in Sunflower-Based Feed
The analysis of moisture content in sunflower-based feed is a critical aspect of ensuring product quality, compliance with standards, and maintaining the nutritional integrity of feeds for livestock. This service focuses on the accurate determination of moisture levels using ISO 93412, which provides a standardized method for measuring the moisture content of animal feed products.
Understanding the moisture content is essential because it directly affects the quality, shelf life, and palatability of the feed. Excessive moisture can lead to mold growth, spoilage, and reduced nutritional value, while insufficient moisture may cause the product to become brittle or hard, affecting its ease of consumption by livestock.
Our laboratory utilizes advanced analytical techniques and state-of-the-art equipment to ensure precise results. The process begins with careful sample preparation, where sunflower-based feed samples are weighed accurately before drying in an oven under controlled conditions specified by ISO 93412. After drying, the samples are reweighed to calculate the moisture content percentage.
The importance of this analysis cannot be overstated, especially for quality managers and R&D engineers who need to ensure that their products meet strict regulatory requirements such as ISO standards. For compliance officers, accurate moisture measurement ensures adherence to national and international feed regulations. This service also supports procurement teams by providing reliable data on the consistency and quality of incoming raw materials.
Our team is committed to delivering consistent, high-quality results. By adhering strictly to ISO 93412 guidelines, we ensure that our findings are replicable and comparable across different laboratories worldwide. This consistency is crucial for maintaining product integrity and ensuring trust in the market.
| Sample Preparation | Drying Conditions | Weighing | Moisture Calculation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weigh sample accurately before drying. | Oven-dry at 105°C ± 2°C for 4 hours. | Re-weigh the sample after drying. | Calculate moisture content as a percentage of weight loss. |
The precision and reliability of this service are further enhanced by our use of high-quality instruments, including precision balances and ovens. Our team of experts ensures that every step of the process is conducted with utmost care and attention to detail.
For those involved in feed production, understanding moisture content is paramount. It helps in optimizing processing conditions, ensuring consistent quality across batches, and maintaining product stability over time. This service not only supports compliance but also aids in R&D efforts aimed at improving the nutritional profile of feeds.
