Hydrolysis unit, HU 6
The HU 6 Hydrolysis unit has been designed to carry out acidic or basic hydrolysis of food and feed samples prior to solvent extraction. The hydrolysis procedure is required in a number of AOAC official methods to determine fat content of food samples including meat, cheese, seafood chocolate.

  • Simultaneous hydrolysis of six samples with minimal manual handling
  • Aluminium block provides fast, homogeneous heating, reducing process time
  • Glass crucible designed for use directly in the SER 148 Solvent Extractor
  • Vacuum pump reduces filtration time
  • Multi-lingual User interface: English, Spanish, Italian, French, German

Typically acid hydrolysis at 170 °C for approximately one hour is followed by transfer to the glass crucible and washing with warm deionised water. After drying, the sample is then ready for direct transfer into the SER148 extractor for solvent extraction, minimising sample transfer and loss.

Ordering information: Please order glassware kits and crucibles separately. Please contact VWR for details.
