Analysing Nutrients and Toxic Elements with TXRF

This webinar will cover how to analyse food and beverage samples with the new Bruker S4 TStar, a flexible multi-excitation TXRF spectrometer.

Starting with sample preparation for both liquids and solids, which is a straightforward procedure with no laborious digestion or hazardous chemicals required.

There will be application examples with a variety of samples, including:

  • Detection of toxic elements such as arsenic in rice or lead in tea.
  • Quality control of nutrient elements in liquid nutritional products eg chromium, selenium, molybdenum and iodine.
  • Metal composition of plant materials.
