We recently released the latest version of our Element^s magazine, which is now available for download. It's a magazine for sophisticated analysis, that is covering different articles, interviews and facts around CHNOS elemental analysis, stable isotope analysis (IRMS), TOC analysis, protein analysis according to Dumas, and optical emission spectrometry (OES). To get a glimpse of what you can expect when downloading the Element^s magazine, you can now read the editorial as preview.

Perhaps you enjoy honey, asparagus and olives, love good wine or fresh fish. But do you always know exactly what is in your food? How it was grown and where your food comes from? Even though most of this information has to be visible on the packaging – can you trust it?

The cultivation and quality control of food are one of the largest application areas of elemental analysis. From soil fertilization to the cultivation and processing of food to the end product, the focus is: How to verify, secure and enhance the quality of food? Especially the awareness of locally and organically produced food has particularly increased in recent years. People want to know where their food comes from.

In this new edition of the Element^s magazine, you will learn how food fraud in form of false declarations or adulterated ingredients can be detected. Furthermore, we take you into the exciting field research on increasing yields in grains and showcase you the advantages of modern protein determination.

Ultimately, it is all about feeding eight billion people in the world and doing so with high-quality food that is produced in a resource- and environmentally friendly manner. Analytics play a revealing role in many areas – for good taste and healthy ingredients as well as for a clear conscience.

We wish you many inspiring insights with this magazine!
