Markets

Nowadays, the food industry faces demands for increasingly greater, more sensitive and productive analytical solutions. The companies within this branch are committed to providing food, products and beverages with the best quality. Agilent Technologies leads the industry with products and services to help you offer the demands of your customers. Instruments, systems and supplies are used throughout the food production chain, including incoming inspection, new product development, quality control and assurance, and packaging. Agilent Technologies keeps abreast of the latest trends, developing new systems and applications that meet the latest market requirements. The ability to identify toxic heavy metals such as lead, cadmium and mercury in food and water is essential for consumer safety. For example, mercury in fish is contraindicated for pregnant women. Agilent Technologies' solutions analyze and quantify contaminant heavy metals, such as mercury at trace levels, using atomic spectroscopy equipment (AAS, ICP-OES and ICP-MS), protecting both the consumer and its brand. Plastics and other polymers, used during food processing and packaging applications, often contain many additives that can significantly influence the final properties of these products. The final analysis is essential to create a high quality and safe product for the environment. Agilent Technologies helps identify contaminants introduced during processing and offers solutions for quality control throughout the process. Dietary supplements, colorants, sweeteners and preservatives must be manufactured consistently with respect to: identity, purity, quality, strength and composition. From testing raw materials to analyzing the final product, Agilent Technologies offers solutions to meet these unique requirements.

DEVELOPMENT OF METHODS IN THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY The development of modern drugs and the manufacture of pharmaceutical products require the creation of efficient processes. These processes must also establish safety and manufacturing controls to provide safe, high-quality active ingredients and finished dosage forms. Nowadays in the pharmaceutical industry, it maintains constant pressure to rapidly develop new medicines that meet the necessary quality standards and achieve regulatory approval for commercialization. Agilent Technologies offers a wide range of products and services to help teams in drug development, to create highly productive and efficient processes using robust tools to face the challenges in the advancement of drug development. Through collaboration with laboratories around the world, Agilent Technologies has developed approaches to drug development, manufacturing and regulatory compliance that guarantee success.

We simplify the complexities in all quality control laboratories for guarantee the highest reproducibility from one laboratory to another, worldwide. The wide range of solutions and services of Agilent Technologies provides reproducibility, reliability and regulatory compliance through the focus of quality in design.

CHEMICAL ANALYSIS IN AIR, SOIL AND WATER As part of their monitoring programs, environmental regulatory agencies require reporting the types of organic and inorganic compounds and their concentrations, which are discharged into air and water. Similarly, it occurs in the concentration of organic materials present in the soil.
The current challenges have never been greater, whether analyzing contaminants in wastewater and the purity of drinking water, measuring indoor air quality, responding to natural or man-made disasters, or identifying emerging pollutants. The environmental analysis must be done more reliably, more efficiently and with results even higher than ever. Agilent Technologies offers more than 40 years of experience in environmental analysis and regulations, is involved in the measurement of organic and inorganic chemicals in water, soil or air, offering the right solution: instruments, consumables and services designed specifically to meet your needs.

QUICK, PRECISE AND POWERFUL PETROCHEMICAL ANALYSIS The analysis of the components of the hydrocarbon streams is fundamental for most QA / QC laboratories in the chemical and petrochemical industry, since the existence of impurities directly affects the quality and performance of the product. Most QA / QC labs rely on standardized industry methods and approaches to ensure agreement with their clients, on product specifications and the quality of their results. Agilent Technologies has more than 40 years of collaboration with ASTM International, in the creation and management of standardized analysis procedures, and many of them have been developed with Agilent Technologies instruments, which include technologies such as: GC, LC, MS, FTIR and GC / MS. Offering Supervision on emerging requirements and trends to introduce the new methods the industry needs through this partnership.
The Agilent Technologies portfolio presents integrated workflow and automation solutions for greater efficiency, from sample preparation to analysis to generate reports, resulting in lower cost per sample.
