Agritechnology: industrial microbiology, fermentation & food science
Capacity

Our food science services can provide everything from an initial sample of a few grams to pilot plant scale up,
providing tonnage quantities.
WE UNDERSTAND FOOD AT A MOLECULAR LEVEL AND HAVE THE TOOLS AND EXPERTISE TO CREATE NOVEL FUNCTIONAL FOOD INGREDIENTS THAT HAVE COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE THROUGH THEIR SUPERIOR QUALITY, WHETHER IN TERMS
OF TASTE, PERFORMANCE OR VALUE.
 
Analysis

Agritechnology carries out a wide range of analytical techniques, for example:

* Kjeldahl for crude protein
* Bradford and Lowry for true protein analysis
* HPLC for carbohydrate, antioxidants (anthocyanins) and proteins
* Enzymatic assays for complex carbohydrates

and recognises that establishment of QA protocols is an essential part of developing a production process.
Human food ingredients, based on proteinaceous, carbohydrate or lipid fractions

Organoleptic e.g. functional ingredients that improve mouth feel; flavours, especially savoury; and flavour enhancers

Nutraceuticals e.g. antioxidants (anthocyanins), immunostimulants, vitamins, trace minerals

Physical / processing functions e.g. water binding, gelation, extenders, egg white substitute

Animal & Aquaculture Feed Ingredients
Expertise
Agritechnology specialises in the fractionation of organic materials, by the application of enzymes, to create functional ingredients:
