FoodSense G4: The Intelligent Food Quality Analyzer “Lab-accurate analysis of Chilli, Ginger, and Caffeine in just 1 minute.”

The FoodSense G4 is a portable innovation for measuring key food compounds from Zimmer and Peacock (Norway/UK). It simplifies complex measurements into an easy process through Biosensor technology, manufactured under ISO 13485 standards.

Key Advantages

• Fast & Precise: Get accurate results within 60 seconds.

• 3-in-1 Sensor Support: Supports measuring Chilli (SHU), Ginger (Gingerol), and Caffeine (mg/L) all in one device.

• Smart Connectivity: Bluetooth-enabled to read and store data on the djuli Cloud system via your smartphone.

• Portable Design: Compact size, ideal for both production lines and field use.

Sensor & Buffer System (Must be used together)

For maximum accuracy, select the specific sensor and buffer for your application:

• Chilli Sensor + Buffer: Measures spiciness according to Scoville standards.

• Ginger Sensor + Buffer: Analyzes ginger extracts and quality.

• Caffeine Sensor + Buffer: Monitors caffeine content in beverages.

Simple Measurement Steps

1. Mix: Combine the food sample with the specific Buffer solution.

2. Insert: Plug the sensor into the G4 device and apply the sample drop.

3. Read: View results instantly via the mobile app and save the data immediately.

Chilli Sensor Cartridge Pack

This is the essential component that makes contact with the chilli sample to read the data.

• Product Description: Sensors specifically designed to measure Capsaicin (spiciness) levels. Perfect for use with chilli sauces, powders, or fresh chillies.

• Key Highlights: * User-friendly Cartridge format: Ensures easy handling and minimizes cross-contamination.

  • Rapid Analysis: Provides quick results when used with the FoodSense G4 or the SenseItAll instrument range.

• Pack Size: Typically available in packs of 100 or 1,000 sensors (to meet the needs of both small labs and large factories).

Chilli Buffer Solution

This is the “essential” liquid that must be used in conjunction with the sensors to ensure measurement accuracy.

• Product Description: A 500 ml buffer solution for preparing chilli samples prior to measurement.

• Why is it necessary?: * Extraction: Assists in extracting Capsaicin from the food sample.

  • Optimization: Conditions the sample to be compatible with ZP’s Electrochemical Biosensor technology.

  • Note: It is highly recommended to use this exclusively with ZP Chilli Sensors and instruments to ensure accurate Scoville (SHU) readings.

• Pack Size: 500 ml bottle.

Ginger Sensor Cartridge Pack

This sensor utilizes the same core technology as the chilli sensor but is specifically tuned to detect ginger molecules.

• Product Description: Cartridge-style sensors for measuring Gingerol content in fresh ginger, extracts, or herbal beverages.

• Key Highlights: * Specificity: Specifically engineered to detect the active compound Gingerol.

  • Ease of Use: Plug-and-play cartridge format; compatible with the FoodSense G4 without the need for complex equipment.

  • Single-use: Disposable design ensures hygiene and prevents cross-contamination between different batches.

• Target Groups: Ginger juice manufacturers, herbal supplement producers, and Food R&D departments.

Ginger Buffer Solution

This solution is “essential” for extracting key compounds from ginger fiber or viscous liquids.

• Product Description: A 500 ml buffer solution for preparing ginger samples prior to measurement with the Ginger Sensor.

• Why use it?:

  • Extraction: Facilitates the extraction of Gingerol from the sample, making it ready for the electrochemical reaction.

  • Stabilization: Adjusts the pH and stabilizes the sample to ensure the device provides the most accurate readings.

  • Compatibility: ZP’s exclusive formula, tested to deliver the best results when used in conjunction with the Ginger Sensor.

• Pack Size: 500 ml bottle.

Caffeine Sensor Cartridge Pack

The sensor is specifically engineered to detect caffeine molecules using a high-precision Electrochemical system.

• Product Description: High-quality cartridge-style sensors for measuring Caffeine Content in coffee, tea, energy drinks, and industrial extracts.

• Key Highlights: * High Sensitivity: Accurately measures caffeine levels in mg/L or mg/100ml.

  • Instant Analysis: Get results within 60 seconds, allowing for real-time beverage recipe adjustments.

  • Easy Integration: Simply plug into the FoodSense G4 device and read results instantly via the djuli app.

• Pack Size: Available in packs of 100 or 1,000 sensors.

Caffeine Buffer Solution

This solution is critical because caffeinated beverages often vary in acidity (pH). The buffer stabilizes the sample to ensure consistent and reliable readings.

• Product Description: A specialized 500 ml buffer solution designed for preparing beverage samples for caffeine measurement.

• Why use it?:

  • Sample Neutralization: Adjusts the pH of coffee or beverages to a neutral state, optimized for the sensor’s chemical reaction.

  • Accuracy Boost: Minimizes interference from other ingredients (such as sugar or milk), ensuring the most accurate caffeine data.

  • Ready to Use: Comes in a convenient, ready-to-use format—no complex mixing required.

• Pack Size: 500 ml bottle.
