Technical data sheet
Print- Method description
A slurried sample is taken through a programmed heat-hold-cool cycle while the viscosity is continuously measured. Differences from the Visco-Amylograph include much smaller sample sizes and the ability to program heating and cooling rates that can change much more quickly than the Amylograph.
- Acceptable matrices
Food and Food Ingredients
- Unacceptable matrices
Low-viscosity liquids (i.e. vegetable oil)
- Equipment
Auto-analyzer with fluorescence detection
- Method reference
Internally-developed methods and AACC methods for grains and grain milling products:
- AACC 22-08
- AACC 61-02
- AACC 76-21
- Reportable unit
RVU (Rapid Visco Units)
- Sample size requirements
100 g
- Information required by submitter
Because each segment of the grain industry uses different sample sizes and temperature profiles, the customer must supply a method reference with the samples. Medallion Labs prefers AACC methods.
- Additional information
This test is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited through A2LA, Certificate # 2769.01. High iron content may interfere with the reaction chemistry. Vitamin concentrate results typically have higher-than-normal method variability.
Common Viscosity by Rapid Visco Analyzer Test Testing Questions
We make every effort to keep our methods and detection limits up to date according to the latest standards and qualifications. If you have any questions regarding the limit of detection/quantification or method references, please contact our Customer Service team at 1-800-245-5615.
Our standard turnaround time is 10 business days for most assays. There are some assays that require a longer turnaround time. We also offer a RUSH service that is half the time of the standard turnaround time of the assay at double the cost of the assay. A few assays that we provide cannot be rushed due to the nature of the test. Please check the specific assay you are interested in regarding the ability to RUSH the turnaround time.
