PROGRAMMED FOOD AND
DietQuest ™ for Food and Beverage Analysis
Cecil Instruments offer three DietQuest™ spectrophotometers
fully pre-programmed for both food and beverage analysis.
Methods include single and multi-wavelength measurements
and spectral scanning. The DietQuest™ UV and the VIS
versions are as shown on the right.
All the pre-programmed methods are defined by national and
international bodies and trade associations including the
following:
AACC, AOAC, ALVA, APA, ASBC, BS-EN, CAA, EBC, DIN, FDA,
FIL-IDF, GUdRI, ICC, IFU, IoB, IOCCC, ISO, MAFF, MEBAFA,

formulae and setting a wavelength program is all that is
required.
Flexibility of Application
DietQuest™ spectrophotometers additionally have all the
functions of a high quality spectrophotometer and may
therefore find wide application in a testing laboratory. Where
only visible determinations are required the ‘DietQuest : VIS’
is offered. The high performance double beam instrument
‘DietQuest : D/B’ completes the range and is shown below.
Reaction Kinetics
Enzyme reaction methods using kits supplied by Boehringer
- Mannheim, Roche, Diogen, Megazyme etc. have been pre-
programmed for a single cell or for 4 or 6 cells in an
automatic changer.
Reaction curves are displayed on screen and regression
analysis applied to the user selected part of the curve. A
number of the assays are simple end point measurements.
Sample temperature control, where required, is available
using either water circulation or Peltier Thermoelectric cell
holders and controller.
DataStream - Data to a PC
Both raw, and processed and formatted data may be rapidly
exported to a PC for incorporation into a spreadsheet or
mathematical package of the users choice, e.g. Excel, Grafit
etc. for manipulation and report generation.

leave the oven enclosure through convenient self-sealing ports. The
output port to the cell thermostatted enclosure lines up with the input
connector of the enclosure, when the modular system is arranged as
shown in the photographs of the system.
The very close coupling to the detector cell leaves only about 2

CE 7260 Spectrophotometer
This symmetrical double beam spectrophotometer
from the Aquarius series, with an 8 cell changer, has a
1.8nm optical bandwidth and is ideal for dissolution
measurements. Its stability of, ±1 x 10-4A/hour,
approximately ten times better than single beam
instruments, makes it ideal for extended
measurements such as sustained release monitoring.
Full cell and wavelength programming together with
wavelength scanning make the instrument ideal for
dissolution applications and may, when required, be
used as a high quality scanning double beam
spectrophotometer for other applications.
CE 9260 Spectrophotometer
This is a top performance double beam spectro-
photometer from the Super Aquarius Series. The
optical system is fully symmetrical and uses a high
performance end window photomultiplier as detector.
This ensures the very best performance with minimum
drift and the best possible noise performance,
particularly for low energy conditions.
CE 3021D Spectrophotometer
This is a high quality single beam spectrophotometer
from the Super Aurius series, with an 8 cell changer
and 1.8nm optical bandwidth. Its stability of 1 x 10-3
