SETOP offers a new starch testing device for apples!
Amidoscan in 5 arguments
The Amidoscan enables precise, reliable readings with a repeatability rate of 0.2%—far superior to human assessment.
It is fast: a sample of 20 fruits is analyzed in less than one minute.
The operator places the fruit halves—which have been coated with an iodine solution about ten minutes prior—onto the tray; the Amidoscan captures an image of each half-apple and determines the starch grade (from 1 to 10) based on the Ctifl scale.
Once processing is complete, the result is displayed showing the sample average; individual fruit values and the captured images are also viewable.
