Oxitest Reactor

Ultra Group offers Oxitest Reactor. The Oxitest is an innovative solution, entirely controlled by the powerful OXISoft™, able to provide high quality, added-value information concerning oxidative stability in foods, oils and fats. The Oxitest works directly on the whole sample without the need for preliminary fat separation, and is suitable for the determination of the quality and the state of preservation of the food sample. An extremely simple and intuitive instrument equipped with two separate titanium chambers in order to analyze the same sample in duplicate or different samples at the same time and under the same conditions. The stability of the sample is determined by accelerating the oxidation process using high temperatures (from 20 to 110 °C) and a pre-determined oxygen pressure. Oxygen is consumed during fat oxidation and it is this decrease in oxygen pressure that enables us to obtain useful information concerning the food sample. The intuitive software controls the entire process in a user friendly way and the operator can record data in a database, compare tests, export the data to an Excel file, filter and order the data quickly and simply.
