How many hours do you wait to get results from malolactic conversion (ML) using paper chromatography?  Eight hours if you’re lucky, or twelve.   Imagine not using paper chromatography, completely avoiding having to suit up with PPE to prevent breathing in formic acid and butanol fumes and not having to decipher hieroglyphic acid runs. What if you could get your answers in a handful of minutes instead, while you could focus on other tasks?  Luckily Admeo’s automated laboratory instruments facilitate the testing for ML. This has several crucial benefits for wineries and laboratories, including accuracy from direct measurement, rapid results, cost savings, and time savings. The SPICA, Y200 and Y400 are all excellent automated options to consider for testing ML from Admeo’s partners at BioSystems.   Human error can be a factor when conducting manual tests and
