Confocal microscopy

How to use confocal microscopy to tackle reformulation challenges

At NIZO we help global food companies to understand the performance of their reformulated products and/or ingredients. With our expertise in microstructural analysis by confocal microscopy (CLSM) we are able to perform real-time visualization of complex food matrices, such as the croissant dough shown above. CLSM is a powerful technique to visualize different ingredients in one image and a very efficient approach to quickly scan and/or to tackle stability issues, tailor mouthfeel, and optimize products and processes.

Interested in a CLSM quick scan to understand the performance of your reformulated product and/or ingredients? Generally, in one day we can analyze six to eight samples.
