CDR CiderLab: The Analysis System for Cider

CDR CiderLab is the Analysis System to perform In-House fast and easy Quality Control on Cider.

CDR CiderLab is the ideal ally to carry out process controls throughout production, it is the innovative analysis system that optimizes traditional testing methods, making them faster and easier.

CDR CiderLab is so easy to use that it can be utilized not only in a laboratory, but straight in the production plant, even by personnel with no previous specific lab tech experience.

In only few minutes, one single instrument can determine:

Cider:
Acetic acid
L-Malic Acid
Free sulfur dioxide
Total sulfur dioxide
L-Lactic Acid
Fermentable Sugars
pH
Total Acidity
Alcohol
Yeast Assimilable Nitrogen (YAN)
Glycerol
Total Polyphenols Index

How are tests on cider performed?

Performing chemical analyses on cider is simple and fast because sample preparation is minimal. All reagents are supplied pre-vialed and ready to use, and operators do not have to handle toxic or carcinogenic compounds; there is no need to wash either containers or traditional glassware.
With CDR CiderLab, chemical tests are performed in just a few steps and results are yielded right away:

• Select the parameter to measure from the menu: the system automatically selects the correct wavelength.
• Use the supplied pipette to add the correct volume of sample to the pre-vialed reagent, specifically developed by our laboratories. A colorimetric reaction is generated.
• Follow the displayed instructions.

The result of the test is automatically calculated, displayed and printed in just a few minutes in its unit of measure.

Save your time

To perform process controls of cider production, CDR CiderLab relies on analytical procedures and dedicated reagents specifically developed by the research laboratories of CDR that allow:

• • a sample preparation that is quick and easy, when needed at all;
  • making analytical procedures extremely fast and easy;
  • removing all needs for complex calibration procedures

Moreover, CDR CiderLab allows accelerating analytical procedures thanks to its thermostated incubation cells and multitasking mode that allow performing several analyses at the same time on the same sample or sixteen different assays for the same parameter on a batch of different samples. All of this in an simple and fast way.
