Bia Analytical Pioneers Beta Testing for Revolutionary Lab Analysis Cloud Portal

Food authentication solution provider Bia Analytical – best known for moving food authenticity testing out of the lab and into the supply chain with portable spectroscopy – proudly announces the beta launch of its innovative cloud portal. Developed using bespoke AWS-powered solutions, the “Biametric™ Portal” dramatically cuts the time needed to verify the integrity of herbs and spices, reducing laboratory-based analysis from days to minutes.

Harnessing advanced chemometrics and AI-powered modelling, the web-based portal leverages Bia Analytical’s rigorously validated scientific models to deliver instant and reliable results using individual lab’s own spectroscopy equipment.

“Manual authenticity analysis is time-consuming and complex, delaying decision-making in the supply chain,” explained Simon Cole, CEO of Bia Analytical. “By digitising our scientific models and delivering them via the cloud, we are empowering the industry to test faster and more efficiently. This technology is a crucial advancement for food safety and security.”

Reading Scientific Services Ltd (RSSL) has partnered with Bia Analytical to conduct this essential beta test. Mark Wilson, Senior Group Manager at RSSL, says, “Saving time on complex sample analysis has the potential to transform our day-to-day authenticity testing process. That’s why we’re pleased to partner with Bia Analytical on this beta test, verifying that the novel system works seamlessly with our laboratory hardware. This partnership underscores key technical considerations for system integration while reinforcing the solution’s reliability and commercial effectiveness for instant food authenticity analysis.”

Bia Analytical’s novel portable spectroscopy solution has already proven its value in the food supply chain. Government bodies have adopted the technology for rapid herb and spice screening, while leading UK food manufacturers and retailers rely on it to improve audit and quality control processes. The company is now eager to partner with food science labs around the world to make the portal accessible using benchtop analysis.

Initially, Bia Analytical’s platform is being used to test herbs and spices, but the pioneering modelling technology can be applied to almost any commodity, formulation or specification in the supply chain such as high-risk commodities including meat, cheese, edible oils, soyabeans, cocoa and coffee which are soon to be impacted by EUDR legislation.
