FoodTech startup Inspecto Ltd. introduces a new device that detects chemical contamination in food in real-time. The portable scanner can detect contaminants at concentration levels as required by regulators, guaranteeing traceability and complete transparency.

The innovative device brings lab testing to food manufacturers and retailers without time-consuming, high-cost lab testing. The solution is fast, accurate and saves unnecessary costs. This system offers the food industry the ability to tailor contaminant testing to their needs and location.

The next-gen inspection system scans the product and identifies contaminants according to specific requirements of the client. A sample is placed in a disposable capsule for detection, inserted into the device, and then activated with a simple press of a button. It scans the sample and processes it automatically within minutes, resulting in a reliable, quantified measurement of the selected conta-minant.

The scan can be conducted outdoors or indoors, anytime to ensure responsible sourcing. All results are stored on a cloud, recorded and analyzed in real time. This high-tech device fills the industry’s need to conduct more frequent testing at different points along the production line, with immediate results.

The newly developed device can be tuned to identify almost any chemical contaminant, in any product, liquid or solid. The advantage of the system is the ability to identify and magnify the unique spectral fingerprint of each contaminant. Moreover, the user can conduct multiple scans per day without waiting for the results or paying exorbitant lab costs.
