Tomato Processing Industry

Traditional methods can take days to show evidence of contamination of tomatoes on their journey from a ripe fruit to the final product. With YSI 2700 SELECT™ you can simultaneously measure lactate and ethanol levels at regular intervals during the production process, getting results in less than 1 minute. With little or no special sample preparation you can detect any contamination early enough to prevent spoilage and ensure the optimum flavour.

Application Note 329 describes in detail the YSI 2700 method for Simultaneous Measurement of L-Lactate and Ethanol in Tomato-based Products (pdf file).
