Bioscience meets food science with CEM’s SPRINT™ rapid protein analyzer for fast, accurate protein testing. SPRINT is an advancement in protein analysis based on a rapid green chemistry process that enables direct protein detection in under 5 minutes. It replaces the traditional Kjedahl method for analyzing food products.
This patent-pending system, which uses iTAG protein-tagging technology, identifies and measures only protein, not nitrogen, so you can be certain your results are accurate. iTag technology attaches to the protein itself for an accurate, direct measurement.
With SPRINT, you can be certain your results are not affected by naturally occurring nitrogen or adulterants, because only the protein is tagged and measured, not the nitrogen.
Features of the rapid protein analyzer:
- Direct method for protein conversion
- Remarkably easy to use
- No hazardous chemicals
- Convenient, disposable sample cups and filters
- Safer and less expensive than Kjeldahl
