DES MOINES, Iowa, Aug. 2, 2016 /CNW/ -- Eurofins QTA Inc. (US)
and Q-Interline A/S (Denmark) are excited to announce a signed collaboration for the North
American market. This process will take effect immediately and seeks to strengthen the market offering of both Eurofins QTA and
Q-Interline.
Eurofins QTA will provide installation, application support, calibration development and maintenance services for this new
technology. North American customers using Q-Interline's FT-IR and FT-NIR instruments, with their patented QTA technology, will
experience a more robust and superior performance from NIR analysis.
"We are expecting a lot from entering into this collaboration with Eurofins QTA, since it will give our customers access to
highly skilled local support. Eurofins QTA has extensive experience in the field of servicing customers and securing analytical
results of very high quality. We are very pleased that Eurofins QTA will be offering our FT-IR and FT-NIR platform for their QTA
concept," said Per Sand, Sales Manager of Q-Interline.
With the completion of the Quant driver and its connectivity technology, Q-Interline's Quant FT-IR and FT-NIR analytical
solutions can be offered for the Quality Trait Analysis Concept (QTA Concept) of Eurofins. Under the QTA Concept, customers have
access to high quality analytical results, without the difficulty of maintaining calibrations. For more information on the QTA
concept, please visit http://www.eurofinsus.com/food-testing/laboratories/eurofins-qta/.
"The successful implementation of NIR analysis is dependent upon the integration of high quality instruments and the expertise
to create, monitor and optimize operational algorithms for those instruments in day-to-day operations. As the leading players in
each of these two areas, the collaboration of Q-interline and QTA bridges the gap between these two areas that, too often, exists
for the end user of infrared analysis. Additionally, the reliable wet chemistry data from Eurofins laboratories insures the
accurate and precise date that is fundamental to the robust NIR methods that are the mainstay of QTA's business model, " said Dr.
Ching-Hui Tseng, Founder and Chief Technical Officer of Eurofins QTA.
