evidence: In this article, the utilization of the DairyGuard™ Milk Powder Analyzer and the novel Adulterant Screen™ algorithm is used to detect seven potential adulterants in milk powder at levels much less than 1 %, without any time-consuming PLS or other chemometric calibrations. [...] Table 1. Performance of SIMCA (with 99% confidence level) and Adulterant Screen for physically spiked whole milk powder samples. DCD = dicyandiamide; AS = Adulterant Screen. Incorrect results (false negatives) are highlighted. See the sidebar on prior page for an explanation of the de tection limit and confidence estimates. Source: PerkinElmer Food Safety and Quality
