(Boursier.com) — Alpha MOS announces the official validation of its milk quality control solution by the Chinese group Mengniu, the 7th largest dairy group in the world and no.1 in China.

This validation comes 6 months after the signing of a 2-year framework contract with the distribution company Lan Chou Instruments to equip Mengniu with Heracles NEO electronic noses.

Mengniu is used to testing the most advanced technologies to control the quality of its products. The manufacturer was first equipped with 3 Heracles NEO instruments to monitor, under operational conditions, changes in the smell of its products over time, signs of possible abnormal ageing, and also to validate the origin of the milk received. in its processing plants.

The equipment validation process was carried out in several stages. After two months of continuous tests carried out in parallel by electronic noses and human panels, Mengniu’s Quality Department established, with the support of Alpha MOS engineers, a statistical model for advanced processing of sensory data. Two new cycles of data collection were carried out to improve the database and the calculation algorithm. Still with technical support from Alpha MOS, the database was finally optimized to allow systematic control of the smell of raw milk from different origins, confirming its quality and avoiding the risk of adulteration.
