Identify and quantify target analytes in a range of food matrices,with each case study providing a commercial brief and experimental aim(s) for this work.

Food composition and analysis

As part of the food composition and analysis unit, students will identify and quantify target analytes in a range of food matrices, with each case study providing a commercial brief and experimental aim(s) for this work. Students will write a report detailing the results of each these practical investigations, to address the investigative requirements of their employer/client. Students will submit a portfolio of their best work for summative assessment.

Each report should include the following:
An introduction which outlines the purpose of the experiment and explains the theory of the methods and technologies used
A full methodology and experimental design (method protocols should be appended or referenced)
A results section giving full results of the practical experiments, with appropriate statistical treatment and summary of results
A discussion that compares and evaluates both experimental findings and analytical methodology performance. Experimental results and literature references will be used to support the points made, with logical and appropriate conclusions drawn.
References and overall good presentation.
