APPLICATION PRACTICE OF ANALYTICAL DEVICES IN RESEARCH CENTER OF ALL-RUSSIAN SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH INSTITUTE OF THE BREWING, NON-ALCOHOLIC AND WINE INDUSTRY AT ALCOHOLIC DRINKS TEST
Falsification identification - is the main link in the system to combat the presence of falsified products in the food market. Test centers (laboratories) carry out product tests in accordance with the field of accreditation with the use of trusted measuring instruments (devices) and registered in the Federal Information Fund for ensuring the uniformity of measurements. Based on the test results, an appropriate protocol is drawn up. Drinks are the most common objects of falsification, facilitated by the physico-chemical state of the facility, cost and production volumes. The testing center uses a two-stage testing algorithm - the organoleptic analysis is carried out at the first stage, and according to its results - a physical and chemical analysis using various devices. In accordance with measurement procedures, special sample preparation of test objects is carried out, after which the sample is ready to measure a certain parameter. The variety of measuring instruments (devices) and special equipment allows the Test Center of All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of the Brewing, Non-Alcoholic and Wine Industry to test the whole gamut of drinks - from beer to strong drinks (cognac, vodka, whiskey, etc.).
