TOC recovery rate of gluten using Sievers M9
[Application Note] Gluten Management in Food and Beverage Factories
In recent years, the demand for gluten-free products has surged. Consequently, in food and beverage factories, the cleaning of manufacturing equipment has become an increasingly important issue when producing both gluten-containing and gluten-free products. In particular, strict cleaning between batches is required to prevent carryover of materials between products. - Challenges in Gluten-Free Management When dedicated equipment for gluten-free products cannot be secured, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the manufacturing equipment. Allergen testing is mandated to prove that no specified ingredients remain after cleaning, but this requires time and skilled techniques. Traditional testing methods, such as the ELISA method, have high accuracy but are labor-intensive and time-consuming, leading to a demand for more efficient methods. Against this backdrop, the Sievers M9 TOC analyzer is gaining attention. This instrument can simultaneously measure TOC and conductivity, making it very effective for determining the nature of contaminants remaining after equipment cleaning.
