Easy handling

The BioFoss instrument is simple‐to‐use and does not require the use of chemicals.

A point and click software interface allows virtually anyone to use the instrument and record valid analysis results.

The technology behind BioFoss™

The BioFoss employs Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR). FOSS is first in introducing Fourier Transform Infrared Analysis (FTIR) technology to the bioethanol industry.
A particular strength of FTIR is that it is ideal for testing liquid samples and it can deliver measurements for a wide range of parameters in a single analysis operation, making it ideal for fermentation monitoring applications.

Fermentation control by anyone

No reagents are involved and no special training is required:
• Select sample type
• Load sample
• Push start
